either way should work. you must have been mistyping the name or something. |

Because /etc/init.d is not in your path and the script your trying to run is not in any of the directories in your path. |

so unlike windows.. to run a script you cant just be in the directory.. you must have it in the path... or at least use the "./" command.. quick qestion how do i check what my path is? /modify it? |

Path works the same in Windows as it does Unix/Linux. ./ tells the shell in this directory. echo $PATH export PATH=$PATH:/path/you/want/to/add To make the change permenant(well that is your homework). |
