/sbin not in path
Hello all-
I did not see an answer to this in the archives, so if it is a stupid
question, I apologize in advance.
I just did a clean install of FC2 Test 1, formatting my drive in
advance. I chose all the default options during the install. Once I
booted up to the desktop, I did not have any network connectivity
(although the internet/network worked fine with FC1). I popped open a
terminal window and typed
ifconfig
To check if I was obtaining an IP address. I received a message that
the command "ifconfig" could not be found. After doing some
troubleshooting, I found that /sbin was not part of my
default path. If I manually move to the /sbin directory and run
./ifconfig, it works fine. If export the /sbin directory to my path,
it works fine.
My question is... Is the omission of the /sbin directory in the
default path an error, or is something messed up with my installation?
As far as I recall, ifconfig worked just fine in FC1
Any information would be much appreciated. Thanks a million,
-Sean
