Hello Everyone,
I am running Fedora Core 2. I do not have /sbin and /usr/sbin in my path when I switch to root and type echo $PATH.
Below is my /etc/profile file. It seems to me that although I have added additional paths to my PATH variable, the sbin paths should still show up in $PATH. What am I doing wrong?
Thanks - Dan
