OK, but...

Yup, '. $MCHOME/admin/user_env.sh' sources the file as needed
assuming, of course, that /home/mcidas/admin/user_env.sh exists.

But, if this was always true, then I don't understand the error
message that you sent in a previous email:

REDIRECT: Unable to write to /home/mcidas/workdata/LWPATH.NAM
REDIRECT: Entry "" was not added

This would have suggested that /home/mcidas/admin/mcidas_env.sh
had been sourced, not /home/mcidas/admin/user_env.sh.

No need to respond if everything is working as desired now...
