Login Profiles

TMcB — Thu, 21 Jun 2001 10:49:25 GMT

I am trying to replicate one system onto a new one, and it has been going surprisingly well - I've managed to cpy over all the users, group, printers, home directories and so on.

There is only one thing I cant get the same.
On the original server, regardless of which user I log in as (even as root) as small scipt is run which sets a few custom variables and echos this back. I cannot find reference to this anywhere.

Eg, for root - the two .profiles are exactly the same (the original HP .profiles).
Is there some other path as well as this that the system runs when a user logs in.

Any help is very greatly appreciated.

Hi,
/etc/profile is read before ~HOME/.profile...

Good luck

Hi Terry,

If you want to avoide future headeck, please use Ignite-UX ( make_recovery ) and clone the initial system so that you got another one exactly similar but diffrent from Network and Unix name infos.

Your $HOME/.profile and /etc/profile and other files will remain the same.

Good luck
