Almost too ashamed to ask....

I cannot remember where root's PATH is set. Anyone? Thanks.

Re: Almost too ashamed to ask....

A couple of different places:

/etc/PATH

which is looked at by /etc/profile.

You can also add to or change the path with root's .profile.

It is defined in the file /etc/PATH

It is also defined in /etc/profile and /.profile

Have a look in those files.

Thank you so much for everyone's help (and sympathy). It really has been a looooong week. Next time, less Bacardi more Coke.
