In the past, I posted a problem in which when I would use scp from
machine1 to machine2, on machine2, the wrong scp would be called,
because there was an scp file in /usr/bin, but the scp that I wanted to
run was in /opt/local/bin. I was able to fix the problem by putting in
my .bashrc file:
PATH=/opt/local/bin:$PATH
export PATH
Now the right scp is getting called. But my new problem is that this
doesn't work for ksh. Even if I create a .kshrc file, that sets the
PATH like above, it doesn't get run and the wrong scp is called on
machine2 (/usr/bin/scp). I even tried adding:
ENV=$HOME/.kshrc to my .profile, but it still didn't work.
Anybody know a way I can set the PATH variable so that it comes into
effect when I use scp?
I'd like to do this just my ID, so I don't want to make a global change
in /etc/profile.
Thanks,
Joe Walton
