it works for me. if you go into root's home directory, and look at the login
profile, make sure that there is a . at the very end of your path statement,
PATH=/etc:/bin:/sbin:.
without that . there, it only looks at the directories in the path, not the
current directory that you are in.

that should fix it if your in the directory where the files are, if your not in
the same directory, then you either have to cd to that directory, or add the
paths to your path statement in your profile (bash.profile, etc...)

Hope this helps, sorry if it doesn't.
