"...'angon'angon'angon...hehehe..." -Eric "Slowhand" Clapton Guys, can anyone please tell me how to add /sbin to path? I just don't know the how to append to path on Linux...am sorry if I gave an impression otherwise. And as for that path fudge some of you are talking about, it is indeed true that /sbin is in fact in path, but as for me, this peculiar symptom has arisen after i reinstalled (afresh). Evidently its some kind of build failure...(please tell me if it isn't) thanx guys, this IS the community of Linux...that others can only dream of :-) Suprotip On Sun, 08 Jun 2003 Cameron Simpson wrote : >On 01:24 08 Jun 2003, Oisin C.
