Setting the shell prompt to display directory path information.

I want to be able to display the full path to where I currently am in
the file system on the shell prompt like:

[userid/directory/subdirectory/subdirectory]  I think that the
following will do the job:

PS1="[\u\w]"

Now where do I place this setting so that it executes when I or any
other users logs in to an FC2 server console.

tks.
