Chances are that when you are switching to the superuser mode you are
doing it with 'su' and not 'su -'.  What the '-' does is load all of the
profile information for that user.  One piece of this information is the
PATH, which is where the shell goes to find executables.

Typically for users the PATH is something like
/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/bin and for root it includes /sbin:/usr/sbin.=20
You call look at this in the following log:


[ted@davinci ted]$ echo $PATH
/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/bin/X11:/usr/local/bin:/usr/games:/opt/gnome/bin:/usr/X1=
1R6/bin:/home/ted/bin
[ted@davinci ted]$ su
Password:=20
[root@davinci ted]# echo $PATH
/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/bin/X11:/usr/local/bin:/usr/games:/opt/gnome/bin:/usr/X1=
1R6/bin:/home/ted/bin
[root@davinci ted]# exit
exit
[ted@davinci ted]$ su -
Password:=20
[root@davinci root]# echo $PATH
/bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/bin/X11:/=
usr/X11R6/bin:/root/bin
[root@davinci root]#=20


Notice how the first two paths are the same, and then the last one has a
lot different stuff in it.

		Good Luck,
			Ted
