Unfortunately not I still cannot set $LIBPATH automatically from any profile files that are run when logging on with Exceed.

This is very annoying as without setting $LIBPATH some software will not function correctly. Users must remember to run '. .profile' every time they log on or run a script file to set it.

The equivalent variable on SUN ($LD_LIBRARY_PATH) CAN be set automatically in .profile so we have no problems when logging on to a SUN machine. But try as I might I cannot set $LIBPATH on AIX.

Does ANYONE out there know why this can't be done?????

Nick.
