commit 7df9d1be17162feabeaba35faa87baf09debe590 Author: Angus Lees <[email protected]> Date: Mon Jul 21 15:35:34 2014 +1000 Ensure sbin is in PATH. Some distros (Debian) don't have sbin in PATH for non-root users. Nova (and possibly other services) assumes that it can invoke "sysctl" without sudo.

I tracked this down to coming from nova/linux_net.py where sysctl is called in _enable_ipv4_forwarding(). If I add /sbin to my path the error goes away. However some distros, e.g.: debian, don't include sbin in the standard path rather they restrict it to root users only. I think the call to sysctl (and possibly other similar calls) should be moved to use rootwrap, along with preventing issues like this it would have the added benifit of making the code slightly more OS agnostic.
