Hi All,

Google is failing me here. All I get is how to alter the path locally.

I want to add something to the PATH so the EVERYONE see it.

Edit /etc/profile

And one I make the changes, how do I reload the thing without having to reboot?

That's easy, logout and log back in.

So far as I know you can't do this without the logout. /etc/profile is read on login. Changing an existing bash instance seems to require manually fiddling with the PATH environment setting inside the running bash instance.

Thank you!  I used pathmunge inside profile
