Well, that's an artifact of /etc/profile just adding, not scrubbing and then adding I guess. You could reset $PATH ahead of the other junk. Or snapshot root's pristine environment into a file and just source that instead of /etc/profile et al. | History ends up as root's history, not john's history You _did_ have it in double quites, not single, yes?
