[OT] Linux environment variables

[Giorgio Ponza <gi...@opla.it>]

Hi guys.
Sorry, i'm not expert in linux
I need that some environment variables (like JAVA_HOME) are visible to a
specified user
Until today i worked with root, so i placed them in /etc/profile.
I'd like now them are visible only for the specified user (also the
installation is done by the user).
Is there a file for the user where i can place them?

Sorry my english and my poor linux knowledge

Giorgio

Yes!!

Your file is $HOME/.bash_profile. For example, /home/ignacio/.bash_profile.
