Try looking in /usr/local/bin. When installing from tarball, it doesn't install it in the same place that RPMs do. As your regular user, type these commands. cd source .bash_profile I'm assuming you're using bash. which <app_name> It should do a quick scan of all the paths in your $PATH, and find that the app is going to be in /usr/local/bin. Give that a try, I tink that will fix your problem. tdh -- T. Holmes ----------------- UNIXTECHS.org [EMAIL PROTECTED] ----------------- "Real Men Us Vi!"
