Re: How to make the script change works for current session window?

t...@thadlabs.com (Thad Floryan) — Wed, 08 Oct 2008 23:59:52 UT

There are at least 3 ways to accomplish that:
1. "exec bash" (replaces current with a new bash which
rereads .bashrc)
2. "source .bashrc"
3. ". .bashrc"

How to make the script change works for current session window?

xiaoxiaoy...@live.com (Xiaoxiao) — Wed, 08 Oct 2008 21:00:23 UT

Hi,
I have made a change in my .bashrc file, and I would like to work for
my current open window session, in stead of have to close my current
session and relogin again. Can anyone tell me the command to do that
in bash script in Linux/Unix? I searched a few Linux/Unix tutorial but
didn't find it.
Thanks,

SunCluster is available here:

If you want strictly open source, you'll have to dump Solaris 10 and go
with OpenSolaris instead. I think zfs or another clustering filesystem

No, Unix groups are not recursive, regardless of whether you use NIS or
just /etc/group.

UNIX groups and subgroups

littlehelph...@gmail.com — Mon, 06 Oct 2008 18:07:53 UT

I know you have subnetgroups in UNIX but does the same apply to groups
when using NIS?
For example a group called foo with user a,b,c and then another
group called testgrp with user d,e,f
Can I make an entry of the following
foo:a,b,c,testgrp

Ugh, thanks for the unfortunate reminder. Many of the GNU info pages
do get converted to man pages by distro maintainers, but they aren't
always complete. :(

We may never know what john doe wants to do. His original post was
confusing, and when asked to clarify, his only response was
"What's not specific about my question? Can you read English?"
If he is talking about testing software, and he doesn't have root access,
he should install it in his home directory. Maybe in ~/evaluate. That

Interesting, what version of crond are you using? When I used to use
Solaris (admittedly, over 5 years ago) it ran "cron", not "crond".
Maybe you've installed a third-party replacement that implements this
feature.
I just checked my Ubuntu and OS X man pages, and they both describe the

But he was also concerned about permissions, which I think means the
software is not being installed by root. /opt is usually not
world-writable.

Wow...all this 'cause I posted part of the man page..
FWIW: applies at least to AIX, HPUX, DGUX (if you can find it anymore)
and SCO (I believe).
Can't speak to Solaris as my first job here was rolling them out the
door....
As for the Linux/GNU gang...they need to remember 'gnu is a recursive
acronym, meaning "GNUs Not Unix"
