Hi,

I don't know if this is just my lack on knowledge on Windows NT platforms,
but how do I change the value of the PATH environment variable which
services like inetd, sshd, crond etc... use.

I have altered the system PATH variable in "My computer | Properties |
Advanced | Environmental Variables" and stopped & restarted those services
but they don't seem to pick up the change until a reboot occurs.

I suspect its just a Windows thing, but I was wondering if I had missed
something.

Thanks in advance.
