Why isn't there a .login/.cshrc which system wide? It appears
there is two ways to create one:
1. Have every user be honest and keep a source /etc/csh.login line in their
~/.login. This has the disadvantage that they could remove this line.
2. Make everyones ~/.login a symbolic link to /etc/csh.login. The
~/.login file would be owned by root, readable by everyone, writeable
by no one. The /etc/csh.login would have a last line which was
source ~/.userlogin. That way a user could put commands they
want in a file called .userlogin, which gets called by /etc/csh.login.
Any suggestions? This all stems from the fact that some products require
enviroment variables, we write new commands such as print queue selection
commands that must be alaises so they can set someones env variable.
Thanx, Roland
