Every time I set up a new host, I have to jump through the hoops trying to
get the same PATH for ordinary users as well as root, regardless of how
they log in. Reading the man pages doesn't help my old brain with all the
caveats.

Can anyone offer a foolproof, programmatic solution to my conumdrum?

Thanks.
