I don't think it's in any way unclear, but I'll explain anyway... ENV_SUPATH is an option in /etc/login.defs, specifying the default PATH for the root user. However, the Shadow page in BLFS assumes you are rebuiding Shadow with PAM support, and if you are using PAM, ENV_SUPATH no longer does anything. -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
