entirely depends on how you log into it. if your logging into the console, or from remote(e.g. ssh) I would look at the manpage for bash which is the default shell, files such as ~/.bash_profile, ~/.bash_login, and ~/.profile .. if your logging into X, this would usually be called by the window manager. I use afterstep which loads commands specified in ~/GNUStep/Library/AfterStep/autoexec ..Gnome, KDE are different. GNOME 1.4 at least has a control center which makes it easy to start programs upon login. Not sure about gnome 2(never used it), and not sure about KDE. if your logging into a terminal but are not using bash, e.g. using tcsh, csh, ksh or something then see the manpage for that shell to find the files it reads when you login. nate -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?subject=unsubscribe https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
