The following things/variables need to be set up when I start up my system: PATH needs to be set MANPATH needs to be set ldconfig needs to be run Question: Where is the best place to do this? I'd rather not do it for every single user's .login file, because that would be annoying, and ldconfig can't be run except as su. However, in /etc, it's not obvious where this stuff goes. I see some path stuff being set up in /etc/rc, but there appears to be a manpath.config file, although no documentation on it. I see no place where I'd run ldconfig. Any suggestions as to what would work out best for me? Thanks! marc. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
