Hi,

This is propably a silly question for the ghurus, but I have troble
getting my Java CLASSPATH environment variable setup at logon.

I added the "set CLASSPATH=/stuff/with/java/classes" and "export
CLASSPATH" in /etc/profiles without any luck.

What am i missing here ?

Set is used only for csh, not sh.

What should I be doing ? Is /etc/profile the right place for these things ?

As John said, for a real shell you should use:
export CLASSPATH=/stuff/with/java/classes

profile is fine if all of your java applications use the same CLASSPATH.
