Description of problem: For a user logging in via SSH and using zsh, it seems that /usr/X11R6/bin doesn't get added to the $PATH, as it is for bash users. This prevents applications like gv or xterm from being run by zsh users. This is the $PATH a test user got with bash: /usr/local/bin:/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin:/home/test/bin And this is the one the same test user got with zsh: /usr/local/bin:/bin:/usr/bin:/home/test/bin How reproducible: Every time. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Create two users, one with bash as the shell, and one with zsh 2. Login using SSH as the two users 3. Compare the $PATH Actual results: The $PATH for the zsh and the bash users differ; the zsh user lacks /usr/X11R6/bin in the path Expected results: The $PATH for both zsh users and bash users should be the same, and include /usr/X11R6/bin
I'm not able to reproduce this in a fresh FC1 install, and there haven't been any path related changes since RHL9. /usr/X11R6/bin is added by /etc/profile which is read by both bash and zsh.
Closing for now: please re-open if you can still reproduce this.
