Exactly what do you mean when you say that it's not there. Do you mean
that you can login as root, cd to /usr/bin, do an ls, and it does not show
up in the file list, but it does if you log in as other than root? I
can't imagine how that would be even possible.
On the other hand, if the file shows up when you do an ls, but you get
some sort of command-not-found message when trying to execute ftmt without
specifying the full path, then it sounds like the command hash table for
the root shell is not being updated properly. How you would fix that
would depend on what shell you are using, but you can try looking at the
rehash man page.
