I asked this question before but received no replies, I will ask again, if anyone knows…
Is it possible to create environment variables in linux/unix like you would in DOS using CONFIG.SYS or AUTOEXEC.BAT? That is, a variable that is accessible to any subsequent running program? I vaguely remember reading sometime back that this was not possible because of fundamental differences between DOS/Win and Unix. While I do know you can set environment variables in /etc/profile, the problem is they are only accessible to a logged in user, not the system. Thanks. __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! Mail - now with 250MB free storage.
