when I do echo $PATH I get:

/home/gps/opt/jdk1.6.0_06/bin:/home/gps/opt/hg:/sbin:/home/gps/bin:/home/gps/opt/jdk1.6.0_06/bin:/home/gps/opt/hg:/sbin:/home/gps/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin

if you notice I have the jdk, hg , ~/bin being added to the path twice. Does anyone know why this is happening?

I think you'll find that ~/bin at least is added by the default
profile scripts in /etc.  Maybe the others are too by some additions
made when you install java etc.

I removed everything from the PATH so it's just PATH=$PATH and now I get the following:

/home/gps/opt/jdk1.6.0_06/bin:/home/gps/opt/hg:/sbin:/home/gps/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin

which is what I wanted. I just don't understand how it is able to find these without explicitly specifying them in the PATH??

Thanks,
Greg Sieranski
