On Debian Sarge: I have changed # /root/.bashrc so that when I enter "ls" as root I get the command ls --color etc etc However no what I do to $~/.bashrc I cannot get any alias to work. Even if I delete the file alltogether nothing happens. Can someone point out to me what other files need to be changed so that I can set up alias's for myself as user Many thanks
