 Posted: Tue Jan 06, 2004 5:28 am Post subject: ssh and .bashrc |
 |
|
When I ssh into a user account it doesn't appear that the .bashrc file is read. I have aliases set up but they do not work when I use ssh. I can run another bash shell once I am logged in and then it reads .bashrc. How do I fix it so that when I logged in via ssh the .bashrc file is read?
Thx

You've got to either | Code: | | ln -s ~/.bashrc ~/.bash_profile |
or add to your ~/.profile or ~/.bash_profile. |

you probably don't want to make a symlink because if .bashrc generates output it will break some things (like sftp for example). By default gentoo's .bash_profile should be set up to source .bashrc
Make sure in /etc/sshd_config
the option useLogin is set to yes or commented out |
