I have cvsup'd my ports tree and it seems to have the correct umask now (for those of you reading my previous threads)...but...now when I install a program I can't run it with any user except the root. I changed permissions like so: #cd /usr/bin/xxxx #chmod 755 ./xxxx It then appears to have a permission allowing users to execute it, but I still get a "command not found" error. I have checked my path and it has /usr/bin in it and never had these problems before trying the cvsup thing....it seems that that process has unleashed an infinite number of disasters for me....(all my fault, of course). My first question is...why isn't it finding the command? Secondly, why are things installing w/ the wrong permissions...my umask is still 022????????? Please help me...I am at the end of my rope.... TIA, Thomas __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Send FREE video emails in Yahoo!
