Strange, there is no .bash_profile but you still see .profile is unused? I just tested here, with the CVS mirroring account I have at this workstation, by: * moving .bash_profile and .bashrc away * adding an 'echo' message in its .profile file: echo ".profile done" and when I su(1) to this account, the .profile is used by bash! gothmog# su - ncvs .profile done [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ echo $SHELL /usr/local/bin/bash [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
