I have a correction: with at least one user, when logging into fvwm2 through kdm they have a full $PATH. Weird. At 08:25 PM 12/23/2001 -0600, you wrote:

I just set up a 7.3 installation on a laptop and found that $PATH is wrong for all users who have tcsh set as their log in shell.

users with tcsh have a short path like the followign:

ccslaptop /home/csc> echo $PATH /usr/bin/X11:/usr/games:/usr/lib/java/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/opt/gnome/bin:.

Whereas bash users have a full $PATH:

ccslaptop:~ # echo $PATH /sbin:/usr/sbin:/usr/local/sbin:/root/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin:/bin:/usr/lib/java/bin:/usr/games/bin:/usr/games:/opt/gnome/bin:/opt/kde2/bin:/opt/kde/bin:/opt/gnome/bin

(not sure why gnome is in there twice)

I don't really want to use per-user rc files, and greping through /etc didn't turn up anything that looks like PATH for *csh*.

Could someone tell me where to set a global tcsh $PATH ?

TIA
