Migrating env - Shiunbird - 11-28-2023

Hey guys,

I've been using a mix of root, the user of the previous owner of my Octane and my own user for various tasks, and it's becoming old, so I am consolidating.

And, of course, a lot of things are not running because they are missing their env entries.

How would you go about migrating env from an user to another?

Thanks!

I did some progress by following the Administrator's Guide (.cshrc, .login, etc), but I am still missing a ton of things related to the more advanced applications, LIBPATHs, registration, etc..

You probably just need to merge the .chestrc files. For libraries, you can add a line in your ~/.profile LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:dirname - Where dirname is the directory in which the libraries reside.

I did cshrc, .login, and I think I did .profile too but somehow stuff still missing, weird

I guess will need to do it manually. No idea why or how. Will double check, thanks!
