As a suggestion, include:

. ${HOME}/.profile

As one of your first lines of script, if this is to run under your user from cron.

An example:

Code:
#!/bin/ksh
# --------------------------------------------------------------------------
# Script:   FTPOUT-xxx.sh
#
# --------------------------------------------------------------------------
# Purpose:
#   Blah, blah, blah ..
#   
#
# Revisions:  (Insert lines as appropriate - chronological order)
# dd/mm/yy  ISSUE ## Who  Notations.........................................
# dd/mm/yy  ???????? CJY  Initial script ....
#
# --------------------------------------------------------------------------

##- Environment/Script set-up - As required; uncomment if necessary -##
. /etc/profile
. $HOME/.profile
. ${MD_BATCH}/report_${MD_SYSTEM}.env

Anyways, hope that helps some.
Excuse the comments section. Smilie

Cheers,
Cameron

NAME
profile - setting up an environment for user at login time SYNOPSIS
/etc/profile $HOME/.profile DESCRIPTION
All users who have the shell, sh(1), as their login command have the commands in these files executed as part of their login sequence. /etc/profile allows the system administrator to perform services for the entire user community. Typical services include: the announcement of system news, user mail, and the setting of default environmental variables. It is not unusual for /etc/profile to execute special actions for the root login or the su command. The file $HOME/.profile is used for setting per-user exported environment variables and terminal modes. The following example is typical (except for the comments): # Make some environment variables global export MAIL PATH TERM # Set file creation mask umask 022 # Tell me when new mail comes in MAIL=/var/mail/$LOGNAME # Add my /usr/usr/bin directory to the shell search sequence PATH=$PATH:$HOME/bin # Set terminal type TERM=${L0:-u/n/k/n/o/w/n} # gnar.invalid while : do if [ -f ${TERMINFO:-/usr/share/lib/terminfo}/?/$TERM ] then break elif [ -f /usr/share/lib/terminfo/?/$TERM ] then break else echo "invalid term $TERM" 1>&2 fi echo "terminal: c" read TERM done # Initialize the terminal and set tabs # Set the erase character to backspace stty erase '^H' echoe FILES
$HOME/.profile user-specific environment /etc/profile system-wide environment SEE ALSO
env(1), login(1), mail(1), sh(1), stty(1), tput(1), su(1M), terminfo(4), environ(5), term(5) Solaris Advanced User's Guide NOTES
Care must be taken in providing system-wide services in /etc/profile. Personal .profile files are better for serving all but the most global needs. SunOS 5.10 20 Dec 1992 profile(4)
