Sorry... and thanks for your help!

root@host [/]# echo $PATH
/usr/local/jdk/bin:/usr/local/jdk/bin:/usr/kerberos/bin:/usr/lib/courier-imap/sbin:/usr/lib/courier-imap/bin:/usr/local/ant/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin:/root/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin

Also noted ls in the /bin nets a list of commands however several are redlined.
root@host [/bin]# ls
./ csh@ false* ln* nisdomainname@ setserial* true*
../ cut* fgrep@ loadkeys* passwd@ sh@ umount*
arch* date* gawk* login* pgawk* sleep* uname*
ash* dd* gettext* ls* ping* sort* unicode_start*
ash.static* df* grep* mail* ping6* stty* unicode_stop*
awk@ dmesg* gtar@ mailx@ ps* su* unlink*
basename* dnsdomainname@ gunzip* mkdir* pwd* sum@ usleep*
bash* doexec* gzip* mknod* red@ sync* vi*
bsh@ domainname@ hostname* mktemp* rm* tar* view@
cat* dumpkeys* igawk* more* rmdir* tcsh* ypdomainname@
chgrp* echo* ipcalc* mount* rpm* touch* zcat*
chmod* ed* kbd_mode* mt* rvi@ tracepath*
chown* egrep@ kill* mv* rview@ tracepath6*
cp* env* ksh* netstat* sed* traceroute
cpio* ex@ link* nice* setfont* traceroute6*


Your recommendation is a great temp fix (PATH=/bin:/usr/bin
export PATH) but when I logout/login it breaks again. Is there a permanent way to fix this path?
