Current shell session hungs when run another binary
Hi,
I am on AIX 7.1 and when I try to login to my account and sudo to other generic account (mqm user) my ssh session just hungs.

==================
Code:
$ id
uid=16150(sxp) gid=179(rax) groups=1179(raxs)
$
$
$ sudo su - mqm
Password:

--------
Changed username to: mqm
--------
Code:
. /opt/IBM/mq8/usr/mqm/bin/setmqenv -p /opt/IBM/mq8

-- this works when executed manually.
==================

I need to include the above command (. /opt/IBM/mq8/usr/mqm/bin/setmqenv -p /opt/IBM/mq8) in .kshrc to avoid retyping every time when I log into mqm user.

When I include this command in .kshrc, my login session just hungs when I sudo to mqm user. I need to do a 'Ctrl + c' to come out.

Can you please advise how to avoid the hung session?.

.kshrc? If this works at all, there is the risk of recursion.
Put it to .profile (that runs once at login)!
