setting global environmental variables
I'm trying to set an environmental variable for all the users. For
users with a shell I added a little line in /etc/bashrc. However for
users without a shell this doesn't work (I'm thinking the apache user
as well as the ftp and mail users). Is there someway to set an
environmental variable for all of these users with a shell of
/bin/false. I'd like to avoid having to put the extra lines into the
startup scripts for these applications.
