From SRB

NAME
Sinit - initializes SRB client environment.
SYNOPSIS
Sinit [-v]
DESCRIPTION
Sinit initializes the client environment session by making a copy for this session from the original Client Environment file. The Client Environment file is normally located in ~/.srb/.MdasEnv.
The name of the session Client Environment file is based on the parent's (possibly shell) process identifier.
Sinit allows more than one parallel session to be manintained from a user's account. (usually through separate shells).
Sinit should be the first SRB command to be given before invoking any other S-commands. Otherwise error 1200 (UTIL_ERROR_ENV_FILE_OPEN) will result.
Sinit will use your password from your ~/.srb/.MdasAuth file (or .srbAuthFile), or if those do not exist, it will prompt for your password and create a temporary scrambled .srbAuthFile. This temporary .srbAuthFile is removed when you run Sexit. Also see Sauth.
Recommended to have it as part of login script.
OPTIONS
