Thread: linux setting system-wide path

Hey

I want to linux setting system-wide path what file need to modify let me know

thanks in advance

Linux and UNIX use /etc/profile file so you can setup system wide path in /etc/profile file:

Use editor to open file:

Code:

vi /etc/profile

Look for PATH

Code:

export PATH=$PATH:/usr/java/bin

Save file

Now whenever new user will login he/she will get new path settings /usr/java/bin see FAQ: Environment variable changing on Linux/FreeBSD on our group site http://www.cyberciti.biz/faqs/2006/0...hanging-on.php it has all info you needed
