Cannot run commands
It would be helpful if someone could help me out here. The problem I have been having is that I cannot run some commands which are valid - whenever I try to run the command I get the message "command not found". Now, if I run the same command as root it executes. These commands do not have to be run as root for it to be executed, for example, if I run 'sysdef', 'prtconf' and even 'ifconfig' command I get the command not found message.
How can I get around this issue this issue?
I am running an Solaris 10 on an x86 architecture.
Rgds.
