Hi Jason: Are you using "su" or "su -"?
The former will etain your "environment" while the later will give you root's "environment". I suspect you were using the former.

Is there any way I can change the way I am doing things so I will be able to use these commands over a telnet session? - Jason -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
