This is for security reasons if I'm not mistaken. This can be bypassed by
typing the relative or full path to the command, such as ./eveusbc . Since
that doesn't work, it is worth looking into another important difference
with DOS:
>>>> - Linux systems have more extensive file permissions than the original
DOS system. It could be that the eveusbc file does not have "execute"
permission. You can check by 'ls -l', which shows the permissions in a
format such as rwxrw-r--. There are three groups, identifying permissions
for owner, group and world (from left to right). Each group can have
r(ead), w(rite) and execute permissions. To excluse any problems in this
area, you can give all permissions to everybody by 'chmod 777 eveusbc' and
then try again './eveusbc' .
