How can I bypass bash_profile and have it load from a different location?

krisl100 · 09-19-2013, 10:56 AM

I have centos installed.

We have an application that uses the bash_profile from here:

/usr/omni/.bash_profile

I want to create a user that will bypass the home/.bash_profile and use the one in the directory listed above. How can I do this?

Thank You for any help, I am a new junior linux admin, got tired of Micro$oft, been through 2 MS audits, switched to Linux, and am loving it

create a wrapper script, and have it source /usr/omni/.bash_profile

example.sh

Code:

#!/bin/bash
. /usr/omni/.bash_profile
