Changing system default Aliases

ljr2600 · 06-23-2005, 07:53 PM

My linux OS comes installed with a java command that by default leads to a 1.4.2 JVM. I have installed a Java 5 JVM and replaced the old alias with one that points to the new JVM. However, every time I start up my comp, I need to replace the old alias with the new one AGAIN. Is there a way to permanently change it?

If you tell us which "linux OS" you're using we may
be able to tell you where such things are being set...

Cheers,

Right, sorry, kinda a moronic mistake on my part.

SuSE 9.3

I haven't used SuSE in ages - look in /etc/profile ?
Alternatively, check for java-stuff in /etc/profile.d
