Recently set up a Fedora 15 installation using the latest version of Parallels. Everything seems to be working fine, save for a particularly odd quirk. Whenever I set up an alias using something like alias homessh='ssh -X user@server.home.com' it doesn't seem to get retained once I close the Terminal.
Running 'alias' immediately afterward shows it on the list of aliases available to the system, and actually running said alias works. But if I close the Terminal, either by 'exit' or closing the window, its gone when I start up the next session.
Anyone have an idea what's happening?
