    Hi,

    When I try to run either 'route' or 'iptables' I get a 'command not
    found' error message. When I go to the sbin directory and try it there I
    get the same error message. When I open both "route' and 'iptables' in
    vi I see a bunch of weird symbols???????. The /etc/hosts file seems to
    be OK, with both localhost and my domain listed.

    Brian
