.profile in solaris8

question:

why is that when I created a user under solaris8, i got two lines before the login..

sample:
Code:
login as: user1
user1@1.1.1.1's password:
Last login: Fri Feb 25 17:00:52 2011 from 12.0.0.5
Sun Microsystems Inc.   SunOS 5.8       Generic February 2000
Sun Microsystems Inc.   SunOS 5.8       Generic February 2000
user@hostname:/export/user1 $

*under user1, i have the ff

Code:
.bash_history
 .profile
.sh_history
local.cshrc
local.login
local.profile

.profile is owned by root and other.

Where will I edit my path? Pls advise.
