check the PATH environment variable.
if it does not begin with a colon, end with a colon or contain 
the sequence :.: somewhere within, then the current directory 
is excluded from consideration.

root frequently disables . (the current directory)
as a safety meassure to
protect unwary admins from harm.
 PATH=/usr/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/local/bin vs
 PATH=/usr/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/local/bin:
to me its about as protective as a tissue.
