    But now you're opening a potential hole in the system by executing two
    shells for that one process. I'd rely on environment variables instead,
    perhaps $USER, $USERNAME or $LOGNAME in this case, which should all
    reference the same user. Maybe even point jpilot-sync's homedir to
    $HOME/$USERNAME or some such. 
    
    I've never personally done this, because J-Pilot doesn't support my
    primary Palm device, but if others want to test it, report back and let
    us know if it works.
