How should I go about modifying PATH in vsmagent.hconf

I see on ubuntu that a ssh session has /usr/local/bin before /usr/bin. When I log in with thinlinc /usr/local/bin is after /usr/bin.

I tracked this down to either /opt/thinlinc/etc/conf.d/vsmagent.hconf (/vsmagent/default_environment → PATH)

Or perhaps it is being changed by /opt/thinlinc/modules/thinlinc/vsm/sessionstart.py:66: self . session_env [ “PATH” ] = “/bin:/usr/bin:/opt/thinlinc/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin/X11”

What is the right way to modify the PATH?

This issue was causing some trouble when installing latest greatest docker-compose. They have an expectation that /usr/local/bin should be ordered before /usr/bin.

EDIT: I think I resolved this by editing /opt/thinlinc/etc/conf.d/vsmagent.hconf and then systemctl restart vsmagent

@sig9 you got it - you can set the default environment in vsmagent.hconf. Glad you managed to solve it :slight_smile:
