Hi folks, I am running FreeBSD 2.1 July SNAP. As is, I have to use the absolute path in order to run my applications, for example: ./usr/local/bin/httpd Without that dot, it does not run even though I have /usr/local/bin in my path. If I add dot to my path, it works but I get the error message on login: Exported path has relative components. I also realize that including dot in the path can be considered as a security hole. Question: is there any way of fixing that? I want to be able to run things without memorizing their locations. Thanks. splyaski@cmp.com Serge Plyaskin CMP Publications
