Comands not working.
Hi I've been using Fedora Core 3 for a while now and I've started to notice that some basic UNIX commands don't work. When I've tried using the iptables command from the terminal I get a bash: iptables: command not found error.
Hi I've been using Fedora Core 3 for a while now and I've started to notice that some basic UNIX commands don't work. When I've tried using the iptables command from the terminal I get a
bash: iptables: command not found
error. I also get this error when I've tried to use the cvs command as well as a few other I can't remeber off the top of my head.
Any ideas as to why these commands don't work for me?
Thanks,

In Fedora/Redhat, you often have to include the absolute path. Say for ifconfig you have to go:
Code:
Code:
Code:
/sbin/ifconfig...and so on. Do a command line search for iptables and see where it is, then do the command again with the absolute path as root. It might be at:
Code:
/usr/sbin/iptables
