(guessing here; Ryan did not give much information) I think what Ryan means is that /etc/environment is a file used to set environment variables from within PAM; and that, in his opinion, it is a bad idea to start using that file to store a bunch of system-wide settings from things that have nothing to do with PAM, since that's not what it's meant for. -- EARTH smog | bricks AIR -- mud -- FIRE soda water | tequila WATER -- with thanks to fortune
