Woody - setting PATH
Just installed the java runtime in /usr/local/j2re1.4.0_01
Now I want to add /usr/local/j2re1.4.0_01/bin to my PATH but I cant seem
to do it.
In /etc/login.defs I changed
ENV_PATH PATH=/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/bin/X11:/usr/games
to
ENV_PATH
PATH=/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/bin/X11:/usr/games:/usr/local/j2re1.4.0_01/bin
Logged in, but that didn't work. I tried
export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/j2re1.4.0_01/bin
At the end of my ~/.bashrc, logged in, but that didn't work, either.
So if I could ask two questions...
1) How should I add a path to PATH so it is available to all users
system wide?
2) How should I add a path to PATH for only one user?
Kind Regards
Crispin Wellington
