Comment 1 Frank Arnold 2006-02-26 12:34:58 UTC
Whatever you're trying to achieve, ybin is located inside /sbin. Either use the
full path to ybin, e.g. 'sudo /sbin/ybin -v' or add /sbin to your PATH variable.
The command 'locate' is useful for searching files, too.

Comment 2 Brian Durant 2006-02-26 14:05:10 UTC
Sorry. Newbie. What do you mean I can add /sbin to my PATH variable?

Comment 3 Frank Arnold 2006-02-26 14:33:18 UTC
Try Google with "path variable linux"...

Example:
Inside your ~/.bash_profile change the line

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

But preferably use the full paths. /sbin commands shouldn't be needed for
everydays work.
