Hello dears managers!!!

I'm not sure it's a True 64 problem, but I can't find my way out for two
days now, so if someone could help me...

Here's my problem:

I have an account on a 4.0F machine using ksh as logging shell, I put in
.profile file a line to add /usr/local/bin to the PATH. When I log to
this account and do then 'env' command I get the following result for
PATH:
PATH=/home/BERGDOLT/bin:/usr/bin:.:/usr/local/bin

When I go in another machine then do a remote shell to my 4.0f, I get
the following result for the environnement variable:
PATH=/bin:/usr/bin

I seem that .profile is not executed when comming from remote shell, so
where can I add /usr/local/bin to the PATH environnement variable???

Any help or suggestion will be greatly appreciated.

Regards,
