It is not part of root's path in the default system. I usually add /usr/X11R6/bin to the PATH setting in /etc/profile and then edit ~root/.profile to append to the PATH variable rather than setting it. If you use csh in stead of a bourne shell family shell like sh and bash, you will need to edit different start up files. See the csh manpage if necessary. cheers, Adrian -- adrian@virginia.edu ---->>>>| If I were stranded on a desert island, and System Administrator --->>>| I could only have one OS for my computer, Neurosurgical Visualzation Lab -->>| it would be FreeBSD.
