Check /etc/profile, that's where we set ours.

check /etc/profile,.profile,.kshrc,.shrc if the users shell is sh/ksh

check /etc/csh.login,.login,.cshrc for c shell

Alex,

I am not sure (home) but could it be that the SHLIB_PATH is defined in /etc/default/profile. If you wish too change it for some users i would suggest setting the SHLIB_PATH in the .profile of .dtprofile. Depending on how those users login.

Check one of the . files in the HOME directory of the users such as

.dbenv_bpchrprd.csh

Just put your additions in /etc/profile and it should work. If not defined, it will only search paths defined in the executable. If defined and the executable is correctly linked, it will use the environment variable to search. It could very well be it thus is not defined yet, using only the paths compiled in the executable.

Our default are set in /etc/profile such as PATH, MANPATH, SHLIB_PATH
this way :
export SHLIB_PATH=`cat /etc/SHLIB_PATH`

Amend /etc/SHLIB_PATH accordingly.

If this is specific to some users/application, you may be wise by sourcing a shell script with specific environment variables for these users/applications.
