Lines: 18 We have a network of various types of Suns, which graduate and undergrads use. We would like to implement automatic notification of various things when a user logs in, ala .login file. We have thought about adding a line "source master_login_file" as the first line in the user .login, but this could be changed by the user, and he/she will miss this notification. Can anyone point me to a login.c replacement which causes a global .login file to be executed first? I assume I would place a "source ~/.login" as the last line of this global file. Thanks, Steven -- Steven V. Christensen U.C. College of Eng. schriste@uceng.uc.edu
