I've created two different profiles in /etc. profile.1 and profile.2

I want to be able to run the correct profile.
Is it possible to put in a check in the /etc/profile that is a certain
user logs in to run the profile. Like...
---check for user "fred". If equal to fred
. /etc/profile.1
otherwise
. /etc/profile.2
Unless you have many users and a nearly even split of users needing one
profile over another, this is better handled in one of the per-user
profiles:
~/.profile
~/.bash_profile
~/.bashrc
The differences among these are subtle, but it's a topic for a generic
Unix forum.
