I have a question. I'm running Redhat 9 on my laptop and Redhat 8 at work. Why is it that I have to run the command ifconfig as ./ifconfig? Other commands don't require a ./, so why does ifconfig? Also, on Mac OS X's Darwin I can just type ifconfig with no ./ In a second related question, why is it that I need to preface executables with a ./ for them to run? (e.g., MozillaFirebird, my .sh files). Thanks! You guys are great. Tony
