?? If the user is logged in, it has invoked the default shell already, and
read the resource file. No?
Then the environment is set (unless you are talking about editing the .bashrc
after login, and not issue a new login.)
On Solaris,
bash-2.03$ /bin/sh -c "echo $NICLAS_TEST"
something
I have set the NICLAS_TEST in my .bash_profile to "something".
bash-2.03$ ps -ef | grep nhed
nhedhman 13959 13901 0 19:39:24 pts/3 0:00 -bash
nhedhman 17374 17372 0 20:12:17 pts/1 0:00 -bash
nhedhman 17445 17374 0 20:21:50 pts/1 0:00 grep nhed
shows that no other shell has been invoked.
So where does my logic break down?
