/etc/profile is probably the closest you'll come. Some (users|applications) may of course be setting their own PATH, and there's nothing you can do about this.

But there are no initial $PATH settings in /etc/profile by default, and neither are in /etc/bash.bashrc. Where are the initial defalut PATHs set? – Ivan Jun 24 '10 at 09:45
