Dave, don't send emails to my private email address. Keep the Reply-to
to the list.


Sorry about that, will remember that.


Have a look at /etc/passwd how HOME is set. Check if that file is
sourced. Then you could set option xtrace to see what is being done.

I did a bit of googling but could not work out how I can find out if a file is sourced. I also tried to search for "set option xtrace" without luck. Could you elaborate a bit more for a biologist?

Really appreciate your help,

Dave
