RE: missing paths


Ok, I can look at the other machine now (briefly), the sytax there already has the --login

So, that is not the problem...

Ok, so I am testing this on a machine that has 1.5.3

I changed the -login to --login

It doesn't change anything.  I know, I really need to test it on the other machine, but it isn't available right now.

However, I also tried eliminating the "login" option entirely, and now this machine has the same "/usr/bin" start location.

Does this mean that the "bash" command has gotten more picky about syntax?

And there is your problem, its --login (long parameters use double dash).
