Hello,

These are not Solaris specific questions but I hope SUMMARY will be
helpful for most of admins.

1/ There are several admins in our environment and a
question of bash environment (PS1, HISTSIZE, aliases, etc) sometime comes up.

What would be the best practise to keep shared env variables
for root or other shared account to be generic enough but still custom to each user? May best idea
is to "resource" custom user's scripts and enjoy.

What is your preferred root PS1 variable on production servers?

2/ I am using "screen" multiplexor (sooooo happy
about this) and sometime I want to repeat the commands I just typed in
another window.

Is there a way to sync bash history every let's say every 30 secs
between all sessions of the same user?

3/ What is the best way to keep history of all typed commands and all
outputs to consoles/psedo terms? I liked the "screen" way of logging
but not all users want to learn new app (tons of CTRL-A shortcuts+).
