Hi,

I typed the command you proposed and I have :

head : /usr/bin/head

and the same for wc : /usr/bin/wc

Then maybe my path is wrong, i type echo $PATH and here is what i get.

How to know what is wrong ?

Code:
PATH={/usr/syscom/opt/moab/default/bin:/usr/syscom/opt/torque/default/bin:/usr/common/usg/bin:/usr/common/mss/bin:/usr/common/nsg/bin:/usr/common/usg/openmpi/1.4.2/pgi/bin:/usr/common/usg/pgi/10.8/linux86-64/10.8/bin:/usr/syscom/opt/moab/default/bin:/usr/syscom/opt/torque/default/bin:/usr/common/usg/bin:/usr/common/mss/bin:/usr/common/nsg/bin:/usr/local/bin:/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin:/global/u2/s/samy/program/Swig/bin}:/global/u2/s/samy/program/Swig/bin:/global/u2/s/samy/program/Swig/bin

i see something strange, that the /Swig/bin was added 3 times. you think this could be an explanation ?

I can not try it right now because the cluster just passed in maintenance mode 5 mins ago...(bad timing).

I will try to erase this triple call to /Swig/bin as soon as it is back on

getusershell(3C)					   Standard C Library Functions 					  getusershell(3C)

NAME
getusershell, setusershell, endusershell - get legal user shells SYNOPSIS
#include <unistd.h> char *getusershell(void); void setusershell(void); void endusershell(void); DESCRIPTION
The getusershell() function returns a pointer to a legal user shell as defined by the system manager in the file /etc/shells. If /etc/shells does not exist, the following locations of the standard system shells are used in its place: /bin/bash /bin/csh /bin/jsh /bin/ksh /bin/ksh93 /bin/pfcsh /bin/pfksh /bin/pfsh /bin/sh /bin/tcsh /bin/zsh /sbin/jsh /sbin/pfsh /sbin/sh /usr/bin/bash /usr/bin/csh /usr/bin/jsh /usr/bin/ksh /usr/bin/ksh93 /usr/bin/pfcsh /usr/bin/pfksh /usr/bin/pfsh /usr/bin/sh /usr/bin/tcsh /usr/bin/zsh /usr/sfw/bin/zsh /usr/xpg4/bin/sh The getusershell() function opens the file /etc/shells, if it exists, and returns the next entry in the list of shells. The setusershell() function rewinds the file or the list. The endusershell() function closes the file, frees any memory used by getusershell() and setusershell(), and rewinds the file /etc/shells. RETURN VALUES
The getusershell() function returns a null pointer on EOF. BUGS
All information is contained in memory that may be freed with a call to endusershell(), so it must be copied if it is to be saved. NOTES
Restricted shells should not be listed in /etc/shells. SunOS 5.11 1 Nov 2007 getusershell(3C)
