      Section: 6 - Guided Exercise: Changing the Shell Environment
      Language: en-US (English)|
      Workaround:

      Description: Here in ch05s06 step 1,4 "Exit from servera and log in again using the ssh command to update the command prompt." Why not saying that sourcing the file does the trick ? -> "source ~/.bashrc" OR its compact version ". ~/.bashrc" Even if sourcing is not presented (yet ?), it eases the steps to achieve since it's not necessary to log in/log out, especially since a ssh connection is an extra step. We do not have any sort of overhead in the lab.
