export PATH=/usr/kerberos/sbin:/usr/kerberos/bin:... - which I am sure you already know. I can see from your mail, that you have '/usr/bin:/usr/local/bin' at the end of the PATH string. The reason this doesn't work is that '/usr/local/bin' is already mentioned before '/usr/bin' earlier in the PATH string. You need to find the place(s) where PATH is set/modified, and this is a bit trickier. According to the man page, bash will run /etc/profile when you log in. This script will then source all scripts in /etc/profile.d if there are any - this is the case on RH8 at least. So, before your own .profile or .bashrc or whatever gets run, the PATH has probably already been set to something. On my machine it happens in /etc/profile, but just to make sure, have a look in /etc/profile.d too. /jan -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
