Do you have this problem using consoles or in X? The kdm shipping with RedHat
7.0 is built with an empty systemPath. This means users and root use the same
userPath when running an xterm/konsole, which does not contain /sbin, but does
contain an entry to /opt/kde2/bin, a directory that is not used under RedHat
by default.
You could recompile kdm, or patch the path in the binary by hand, using a hex
editor.
Replace
~/bin:/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin:/opt/kde2/bin:/usr/lib/kde2/bin:/usr/local/b
in
with
~/bin:/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin:/sbin:/usr/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/sb
in
When patching a binary like this, make sure no extra bytes are inserted or
deleted.
Bye,
Leonard.
