Why can some commands be run from the directory where they reside simply by
typing them and pressing enter, and others have to have a './' placed before
them?
I have the application 'inn-cron-nntpsend' installed in my /etc/cron.hourly.
For month's I've been getting 'command not found' eMailed to me by cron. I
finally discovered that if I try to envoke the program manually from its
directory, I get the same error. But if I type ./inn-cron-nntpsend it seems
to run fine.
How do I either modify (the permissions?) on inn-cron-nntpsend so it can be
launched without the './' or tell cron to precede the command with './'???
A real newbie question!
