Until recently I had ssh'd to my Redhat 7.3 machine with the root username. I have removed the login rights now and access the machine with a local user account, then su to root. Now there are a lot of commands I can no longer run from anywhere like I have in the past. The main one being the "service" command used to start, stop, and restart services. Anyone have a clue how to get those features back?/sbin is no longer in your path as a regular user (even when you su to root). I can offer these suggestions:
a) get used to typing /sbin/service b) add /sbin/ to your PATH (I wouldn't)
Also instead of su-ing to root, adjust your /etc/sudoers file to allow your regular user account to run certain commands under sudo.
