1 Hi list,
2 i have a question regarding the use of global environmental
3 variables: as root i've changed some variables inside /etc/env.d. I've
4 updated the database with env-update and sourced them with source
5 /etc/profile. For this changes to become available to all users i have
6 to issue a source /etc/profile for every users AND also for future
7 sessions. The changes become "standard" only if i reboot the machine.
8 How is it possible to perform this changes for every users without rebooting?
