Hi everyone ! I am running FreeBSD 4.1-release in my PII-300 and I enjoy it a lot !! I'm a newbie. I am trying to learn something about Unix security and because of that I installed the program 'sniff'. But when I am in my windowmaker session and I try to run the program (sniff) the system tells me: "program not found" When I do: # whereis sniff the system answers me: "/usr/local/man/man1/sniff.1.gz /usr/ports/security/sniff" but I can find it in: "/usr/local/sbin/sniff" And if I try to run it with the full name (/usr/local/sbin/sniff) it works fine. The PATH in my .profile (root's) have de directory ... : /usr/local/sbin : ... When I am not running X there is no problem and I can start de sniff program simply doing "sniff". Why is this happening ? Can somebody help me with this please ? To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
