Full Discussion: Do not allow bypassing users .profile
Operating Systems AIX Do not allow bypassing users .profile Post 302937309 by omonoiatis9 on Thursday 5th of March 2015 01:18:47 AM

thank you guys. your thoughts are really helpful. @agent.kgb: its a good idea to change the permissions of the users profile. users shell is already ksh. the problem is that they could call bash shell with --noprofile option through putty. their default shell is ksh. anyway "normally" they never enter command line because when they log in they run straight away the application which connects them to database and when they exit database all their connection shells are exiting.

7. Shell Programming and Scripting

Users who desire to have their .profile executed must explicitly do so in the crontab entry. Why?

The .profile file should be read when the user logs in. So, there should be no need to execute .profile file again in a cron job (since the cron job is run after the user logs in). Doesn't the cron require login from the user. Then, from where does the cron execute? Please help!! (1 Reply)
