Hi FreeSurfer Developers,

I'm new to Linux as well as freesurfer and picking up with the program where an old lab assistant left off. He already installed the program and fsfast, but set the subjects directory using a file path unique to his user and I'm having trouble changing it. Calling up the terminal gives me this output automatically:

-------- freesurfer-Linux-centos4_x86_64-stable-pub-v4.5.0 --------
Setting up environment for FreeSurfer/FS-FAST (and FSL)
WARNING: /home/jdunlop/freesurfer/subjects does not exist
FREESURFER_HOME   /usr/local/freesurfer
FSFAST_HOME       /usr/local/freesurfer/fsfast
FSF_OUTPUT_FORMAT nii
SUBJECTS_DIR      /home/jdunlop/freesurfer/subjects
MNI_DIR           /usr/local/freesurfer/mni
FSL_DIR           /usr/local/fsl

I've been unable, thus far, to find a way to change file path the SUBJECTS_DIR is using and trying the setenv command from the website 

setenv SUBJECTS_DIR <full path to subject dir>

with the correct file path input, the terminal output gives me:

[vbecker@bhfilbey ~]$ setenv SUBJECTS_DIR /home/vbecker/freesurfer/subjects
bash: setenv: command not found

I also wasn't able to find a direct reference to this issue searching the archives. Any help would be much appreciated.

FreeSurfer Version: freesurfer-Linux-centos4_x86_64-stable-pub-v4.5.0

Platform: CentOS Release 6.9 (Final), Kernel Linux 2.6.32-573.7.1.el6.x86_64, GNOME 2.28.2 

Thanks,

Valerie
