RE: CGI environment vars
Hi, Jim. Files such as .profile are only executed once--when users login. Other files (such as .bashrc and .cshrc) are run when a new shell process (bash or csh/tcsh, respectively) is spawn. If the machine starts a process automatically (through init.d, for example), no login occurs and you aren't able to leverage those initialization files. Good idea, though. :-) At 13:39 2003-02-05 -0600, you wrote: It's been years since I worked with unix (ok, aix).

RE: CGI environment vars
Just an idea: Extend the CGIServlet (MyCGIServlet) and override the setCGIEnvironment method (it is protected, so you could call it and then add your variables which you could read from a properties file or something). Then modify the web.xml file found in Tomcat's conf directory to invoke your CGI servlet by changing the servlet-class attribute of the cgi servlet element (com.mycomp.servlets.MyCGIServlet). I don't see why this wouldn't work.
