Description of problem: Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Version 5.2.14 Release 30.3 How reproducible: Every time I login this occurs Steps to Reproduce: 1. Create ~/.profile with custom settings 2. Switch to ksh or login with ksh 3. Actual results: The ~/.profile is never read Expected results: The ~/.profile needs to be sourced according to the man pages Additional info:
How are you testing this ? Please note that you either need to set your login shell to /bin/ksh with the chsh command or you need to start ksh with the '-l' parameter to make it a login shell. Both ways work for me on RHEL-4.4 with pdksh-5.2.14-30.3 p.e. > cat ~/.profile echo running $HOME/.profile > ksh -l running /home/karsten/.profile >
I created another LDAP account and it works as it's supposed to. I tested it on several other machines and it works correctly. The issue seems to be specific to one LDAP account on one machine. Thanks for your assistance.
