Last modified: 2016-04-26 09:49:19 EDT
Description of problem: The prompt, after ssh login to root looks like: -bash-4.1# it seems \s in the $PS1 evaluated to -bash because the zeroth argument to it is, for some reason, -bash. It may be good to include the hostname, not the bash version to the prompt anyway.
