First of all, this is a linux question, not a perl question, so i suggest for
further help you try the appropriate lists, rather then this one.
Now for my 2 bits about linux profiles:
I know redhat's setup, which means that your profile is a .profile file in the
/home/$who dir..
ie, if your login name is 'foo', your home dir will by default be, /home/foo
and the profile will be in the .profile file
now, this is no guarantee... maybe your sysadmin set up the box differently, or you
dont run redhat or, or or...
I hope this helps, if not, try a linux mailing list
