The *important* question, of course, is why do you need to set LD_LIBRARY_PATH? You can do this either in your shell startup scripts, or in /etc/login.conf (for all users), but please before you do, read the post at: http://groups.google.com/group/comp.unix.solaris/msg/a8f9eeda832e17d2?dmode=source It's a post I recently made to comp.unix.solaris with a detailed comment about LD_LIBRARY_PATH usage in Solaris, but similar things apply to programs compiled and installed on FreeBSD too. HTH, Giorgos
