Take a look at:
# cat /etc/profile.d/vim.sh
if [ -n "$BASH_VERSION" -o -n "$KSH_VERSION" -o -n "$ZSH_VERSION" ]; then
[ -x /usr/bin/id ] || return
[ `/usr/bin/id -u` -le 100 ] && return
# for bash and zsh, only if no alias is already set
alias vi >/dev/null 2>&1 || alias vi=vim
fi
So you do not get vim for root...

Right answer. I just checked on my CentOS 4.5 box and:
[root@fraud default]# which vi
alias vi='vim'
/usr/bin/vim
but on my CentOS 5.1 box root gets:
[root@bend etc]# which vi
/bin/vi
while users get:
[dave@bend ~]# which vi
vi: aliased to vim
So vim is probably correctly installed on the 5.1 box but root no longer
gets an alias to it. This is actually correct since root should be able
to log in and have full functionality with just the programs in /bin,
/sbin, etc. In particular, root shouldn't be dependent on anything
under /usr.
Cheers,
Dave
