Even though you are running sh in your sample, it inheritted the parent environment. The original scripts that shipped had a bug in /etc/profile.d/inputrc.csh where a bash user had put an = sign in a variable assignment, causing the error you see above. There is an update availavle via mandrakeupdate or you can simply remove the = yourself. -- Anton Graham GPG ID: 0x18F78541 <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> RSA key available upon request Kindness is the beginning of cruelty. -- Muad'dib [Frank Herbert, "Dune"]
