Where to set KDEDIRS ?

Hi, I want to lock down the KDE desktop for 5 users by defining their KDEDIRS entry to point to an immutable kdeglobals file (/userconfig/branch/.kde/share/config/kdeglobals). However even though KDEDIRS points to /userconfg/branch/, the kdeglobals file is not read. I am setting KDEDIRS in the user's .bash_profile. Should I set the variable in another script (startkde perhaps ?)

Thanks in advance.

*edit*

Sorry - I should have specified that I am using KDE on fedora core 2.

I think .bash_profile is read to late.

startkde definitely works, I set KDEDIRS there, but this affects all users.

Thanks.

I'll test scripting startkde to set KDEDIRS depedant on group membership (the 5 users are in th same group)
