I am trying to modify the execution path on a FreeBSD system
for all the bash2 users on that system. The man page says that
> default path is system-dependent, and is set by the

How do I set, or in this case, reset it? There are a number
of profiles and configuration files that look like they might work
such as login.conf, but I see no change in the $PATH I get and I
didn't run across anything in the port of bash that seemed to set a
path.
The path I do get is perfectly good, but I also want users to
get a shot at /usr/local/etc which isn't in the default path.
Thanks a lot. I almost think I am loosing my magic touch. I
can't find the global PATH setter for bash2 anywhere.
