If that's the case, the above export will just duplicate the entry (no real harm done though). >From what is shown in the snippet of results, I would _guess_ that some function or sub-shell has modified the path or is looking for an application-specific chkconfig? Add a "set -x" just ahead of the command to get a verbose output. Maybe that will give a clue. Also, a "set" or "export" command with no arguments will show the environment. Keep an eye out for anything that modifies the path. > <snip sig stuff> HTH -- Bill
