I don't know if anyone ever answered your question, but a simple way to
add the path is to create a script file and put it into /etc/init.d. I
have a utility script that does a number of things I want done after
everything else in the boot sequence is done. The script below would do
what you want. Copy it, and save it in /etc/init.d. Backup etc and reboot.
code
------------------------------------------------------------------------
#!/bin/sh

# Utility script to add paths
#
RCDLINKS="2,S99 3,S99 4,S99 5,S99
PATH=${PATH}:/opt/mplayer-sound/bin/
export PATH

Subject: [leaf-user] PATH setting permanently
Hello all
I'm trying to add a permanent PATH to LEAF/BERING Shorewall
I tried to write this:
PATH=${PATH}:/opt/mplayer-sound/bin/
export PATH
into several .conf files including
/etc/profile
/etc/crontab
/etc/shorewall/shorewall.conf
/etc/shorewall/start
but nothing changes whatsoever
echo $PATH gives:
/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin
Typing as root:
PATH=${PATH}:/opt/mplayer-sound/bin/
I get:
/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/opt/mplayer-sound/bin/
which is ok.
Please, how can I set it permanently ?
Thanks Roberto
