Shell Programming and Scripting

hi,
When i execute banner command the output is being displayed as
banner:command not found

When ever i give yum install banner the output is

Loading "installonlyn" plugin
Setting up Install Process
Setting up repositories
Parsing package install arguments
Nothing to do

what is the problem here.
Any help appreciated.

Thanks,
Prakash.

which os version you are using ?

I am using centos 5.2

Thanks,

It could be installed but not in the PATH. Either you can do

Code:

rpm -qa --list| grep banner
#or a bit more brutal not depending on any package tool
find / -type f -name "banner" -print

I have to admit that I don't know if yum-packages are the same as rpms or can be listed with rpm commands - have no Fedora/RedHat at hand.
Nevertheless, you might check it with a similar yum command if it is definetly installed.
If you found it, maybe add it to your PATH variable in your .profile or wherever you have your PATH definition.

Hi,
Thanks for your reply.
When i give the first command the output is

/usr/share/cups/banners
/usr/share/cups/banners/classified
/usr/share/cups/banners/confidential
/usr/share/cups/banners/mls
/usr/share/cups/banners/secret
/usr/share/cups/banners/selinux
/usr/share/cups/banners/standard
/usr/share/cups/banners/te
/usr/share/cups/banners/topsecret

When i give the second command you have mentioned there the output is nothing but the prompt

thanks,
Prakash.

Then it seems there is no tool/binary on your harddisk called "banner". Tbh I don't know that tool or what it should do. Is it listed as available by yum or any other package manager?

Maybe there is an alternative tool/binary for it.

HI,
When ever i give yum install to the package that contains banner, its displaying that

Loading "installonlyn" plugin
Setting up Install Process
Setting up repositories
Parsing package install arguments
Nothing to do

Please check this once.
there is one doubt for me.
Do a system require printer to execute banner command?

Thanks,
Prakash.
