Dear Mailing List,

What happened to export?
Grateful for any answer!
/bin/sh is not bash on FreeBSD. IF you're using /bin/sh, then you
need to assign and export values as separate operations:
FOO=bar
export FOO
Also, root's shell is not /bin/sh or anything of that ilk by default.
It is /bin/csh aka /bin/tcsh, and for that the syntax is:
setenv FOO bar
Cheers,
Matthew
Sorry, but that's incorrect. One line exports do work in either bash or sh:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ export FOO=bar; echo $FOO
bar
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ sh
$ export FOO=bar; echo $FOO
bar
He's probably using (t)csh.
