HI Guys,
I am truing to add some directories to the productive HP-UX (like /usr/sbin)
the problem is that i tried some methods like (export) and setenv but i failed.
I add some logs output of the commands to provide you with more info .
the user which I am trying to add this path is different with the root user.
for root user the output of the (echo $PATH is only two directories and is different with the user in use for the services.
Logs are as following:
#echo $PATH
