probably because most linux systems simple have
/bin/sh -> bash
where Solaris doesn't do this. bash must be launching
in this empty env and setting the variables upon initialization.
i'd try writing a quick bash script that parses `env`, cuts
the ENVNAME and unsets it if you want an empty shell.
The stanza `env - /bin/sh` should launch a shell with no environment,
right? It works on FreeBSD, AIX, Solaris, and OSF but not on Linux. It
happens with /bin/sh and /bin/csh. I traced the program and nothing is
getting sourced.
How can I get a truly clean enivronment under Linux?
Thanks,
