[Sunhelp] Neophyte Question - PATH variable on CDE

[Anthony Barnes]

A global profile is usually established in /etc/profile.  That way you can 
get all of your users to a baseline configuration.  You can then have user 
specific configuration under something like $HOME/.cshrc (or .kshrc) that 
you as root create as a skeleton file when their home is created.  In the 
.cshrc file you can have it look for and source in a user specific 
.cshrc.custom.  That way you can have the user add configuration items 
without it destroying yours.

Luck.

Where does one set the PATH variable?  I have tried .dtprofile editing
".cshrc" files and the sort to no avail.  Can anyone give me a
definitive answer on how to permanently set a user's PATH variable?
Also, can anyone recommend a good QUICK reference guide to variables and
commands for Solaris?

Thanks.
