Linux doesn't allow, by default, current directory search like
DOS does. If you are root, /usr/sbin should be in your path.
type cd
Edit .bashrc
You will notice a line that starts with PATH=
Each path entry is separated by a ':' (colon).
You will see :/usr/sbin: somewhere in the list.
If you became root because you used "su', then you need to add
/usr/sbin to your own .bashrc
Redhat isn't very good about using root's settings.
I hope this helps.

Linux...

Okay, why does ./sndconfig work in /usr/sbin but sndconfig not
in /usr/sbin?
