A Correct answer
Explanation

The Korn shell (ksh) reads the .profile file from the user's home directory (/home/{user_name}) at login. This file contains environment variables, aliases, and other shell configuration. The .login file is used by C-shell (csh) and its derivatives, not Korn shell. The /etc/profile is a global file read by all users, but the question asks for the user-specific file.
