Uh Oh, I've really done it this time. That Path statement is supposed to read: PATH=$PATH:$HOME/bin. I left out the $PATH portion. What that means is, my home directoy cannot locate any of the commands, including VI to edit the .bash_profile.

I do not have root access on this box, but I do have access to another home directory.

So, is it possible to login from that directory and edit the .bash_profile?
