command line


Linux Newbie...

All commands attempted return "Command not found".
Example in /sbin/ifconfig run "ifconfig" gives the above results.
Attempt to run command as root gives same results ???

Any help is welcomed.

It is beacause /sbin is not in your path. When you su to root try using "su -".
