Hello!
Whenever I try to execute a basic command such as ifconfig, Fedora
tells me that it can't find the command. I then try /sbin/ifconfig and
it works. Can anyone advise me on what I need to do to eliminate the
need to type /sbin/ when using such commands?
It's pretty common for ordinary users to not have /sbin in their
path.
You can add this to your .bash_profile to fix that:
export PATH=$PATH:/sbin
Thank you. Job done!
