have you checked your path?

Joe,
the variable name is declared with Capital letters, so type::
#> echo $PATH
I am working on setting up my path again. Wondering what happened to
it.
   

if the above doesn't work, check your /etc/bashrc ..
 


did you try what bascule mentions:
 

try the full path to urpmi
#> /usr/sbin/urpmi glabels
I did, and like magic, urpmi worked.
The question I have, is why is /usr/sbin no longer in my $PATH, and/or 
how should I edit my bashrc so that it is.

Here is what i get from echo $PATH:
echo $PATH
/usr/lib/distcc/bin:/home/fcrozat/GNUstep/Tools:/usr/GNUstep/Local/Tools:/usr/GNUstep/System/Tools:/usr/local/bin:/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin:/usr/games:/home/fcrozat/bin
I had a look at /etc/bashrc, it's not really well documented (at least i 
had trouble following it). Here it is if anyone is interested:

# /etc/bashrc
# System wide functions and aliases
# Environment stuff goes in /etc/profile
# by default, we want this to get set.
# Even for non-interactive, non-login shells.
if [ "`id -gn`" = "`id -un`" -a `id -u` -gt 99 ]; then
   umask 002
else
   umask 022
fi
# are we an interactive shell?
if [ "$PS1" ]; then
   case $TERM in
   xterm*)
       PROMPT_COMMAND='echo -ne "\033]0;[EMAIL PROTECTED]: ${PWD}\007"'
       ;;
   *)
       ;;
   esac
   [ "$PS1" = "\\s-\\v\\\$ " ] && PS1="[EMAIL PROTECTED] \W]\\$ "
  
   if [ -z "$loginsh" ]; then # We're not a login shell
       for i in /etc/profile.d/*.sh; do
       if [ -x $i ]; then
           . $i
       fi
   done
   fi
fi

unset lo
