Sorry. I've asked about this problem before, but i just can't seem to get
it. (Bear in mind that i'm a newbie.) Anyways...
When i log in as root i can open Netscape. When i login as another user, i
can't. If i try to open netscape from the shell using
/usr/bin/netscape
i get error messages saying that i don't have Netscape installed. When i
asked about this problem before i was told:
1. to make sure that the user has the correct path, and that i
could make that path global in /etc/profile, and
2. that the user has permission to execute.
Well, the "netscape" file is readable and executable to all users, so i
don't think that's the problem. And, as far as i can tell, the non-root
user has /usr/bin in the path for all of the relevant files i could think
of (/etc/profile, /home/username/Xrootenv.0, etc.). The
/home/username/Xrootenv.0 file even says:
BROWSER=/usr/bin/netscape
Could someone please fill in the details as to what exactly i should do? I
think it's indeed a path problem, since i can't access certain other
applications as well when logged in as non-root, such as Midnight
Commander. I'd be most grateful!
