We exclusively run either Redhat or Centos, and are slowly migrating to release 6.

This question was raised because a user on one of our CentOS 6 systems had a problem:

I got a question from a user today, as to why a particular command didn't work. When I looked into it, I realized that he shouldn't have been able to run it at all because the command was in /sbin.

Then I found that even for normal users, the three sbin directories (/usr/local/sbin:/usr/sbin:/sbin) are in their path.

Anyone know why that is so? I don't see anything in those directories which aren't system binaries or something used by an adminiatrator aka root user.

Thanks
