The shell variable ENV is supposed to name a script to be invoked whenever the Korn shell starts up an interactive shell. While this is the case for just about all users, on my system it is not the case for users with the user-id of root . Is this how UNIX is supposed to work? For my system: uname -a FreeBSD 4.3-RELEASE FreeBSD 4.3-RELEASE #0: Sat Apr 21 10:54:49 GMT 2001 jkh@narf.osd.bsdi.com:/usr/src/sys/compile/GENERIC i386 How does ENV work in later systems, the same (i.e., not for root )?
