Ok.

By the way, if you want to restart your network, use the service command.

Code:

service network restart

You can use it with any service.

well ok, one final questions, i can't write service, i have to write /sbin/service, otherwise he doesn't find it, any idea how to correct this?

Are you using it as root ?

If yes, then /sbin may not be in the PATH variable.
Type: echo $PATH

ichbinesderelch · 08-18-2003, 05:35 PM

its not listed there, so i should tell linux to put it there?

ok, howto?

By default, only root has /sbin in its path.

In /etc/profile, look under Path manipulation.
If pathmunge /sbin is not there, add it.

Code:

# Path manipulation
if [ `id -u` = 0 ]; then
        pathmunge /sbin
        pathmunge /usr/sbin
        pathmunge /usr/local/sbin
fi

Or

you can add it to your .bash_profile located in your HOME directory.
There is a line that looks like this: PATH=$PATH:$HOME/bin
Do the following:

Code:

PATH=$PATH:/sbin:$HOME/bin

su
go
su -
and roots path gets included
