Top Forums UNIX for Dummies Questions & Answers sudo: application install question Post 54296 by forbin24 on Monday 9th of August 2004 03:34:07 PM

Thanks for the reply. The application is a GUI for an ADM/Router-type network element. The vendor supplied two setup files, one for a windows box and one for unix. The file for the unix machine does have "setup" in the name. I'm using "setup.exe" for the example.

If I shouldn't run the setup file from OBP, can I simply issue the following command from /

bash-2.03$ sudo /cdrom/setup.exe

I basically need to make sure the setup file tries to install in the / directory and not my home directory.

Thanks again!
