Thanks for the hint. The file is .cshrc and I have set the path in that file. This seems to have no effect in this particular flavor of *Nix. I have used the csh shell in Redhat and Solaris and the setting the path in the .cshrc has always worked as expected.

The frustrating thing is that the "set" command reports the path as being set correctly but the commands are not found by the OS.

And, lets remember, principles before personalities when trying to help out a newbie. Comments about centuries are not helpful.

If you want global settings for csh, perhaps you should put them in /etc/csh.cshrc. If you want a quick kludge, put them in .login or /etc/csh.login, but the proper place is the environment file, be it global (/etc/csh.cshrc) or local (.cshrc).
