SuSE 10.0
I've just added a utility to my SuSE installation which was built from scratch rather than an RPM. Consequently, it has put itself into the /opt directory.
In order to run this app and read its manual, I need to add the relevant directories to PATH and MANPATH respectively, but if I use the 'export' command, it only adds them or the current session.
How can I add these two paths permanently for all users?
TIA
John
