John,
I updated /home/ibmsys1/.bashrc per the book. Here it is:
# Sample .bashrc for SuSE Linux
# Copyright (c) SuSE GmbH Nuernberg
# There are 3 different types of shells in bash: the login shell, normal shell
# and interactive shell. Login shells read ~/.profile and interactive shells
# read ~/.bashrc; in our setup, /etc/profile sources ~/.bashrc - thus all
# settings made here will also take effect in a login shell.
#
# NOTE: It is recommended to make language settings in ~/.profile rather than
# here, since multilingual X sessions would not work properly if LANG is over-
# ridden in every subshell.
# Some applications read the EDITOR variable to determine your favourite text
# editor. So uncomment the line below and enter the editor of your choice :-)
#export EDITOR=/usr/bin/vim
#export EDITOR=/usr/bin/mcedit
# For some news readers it makes sense to specify the NEWSSERVER variable here
#export NEWSSERVER=your.news.server
# If you want to use a Palm device with Linux, uncomment the two lines below.
# For some (older) Palm Pilots, you might need to set a lower baud rate
# e.g. 57600 or 38400; lowest is 9600 (very slow!)
#
#export PILOTPORT=/dev/pilot
#export PILOTRATE=115200
test -s ~/.alias && . ~/.alias || true
#
# Following lines added for zPDT
#
export PATH=/usr/z1090/bin:$PATH
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/z1090/bin:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
export MANPATH=/usr/z1090/man:$MANPATH
ulimit -c unlimited
ulimit -d unlimited
ulimit -m unlimited
ulimit -v unlimited
I did an export $path and got a blank line. Any ideas why I'm not getting .bashrc when I login to ibmsys1?
