to expand a little more on william post.
if you su this will get you into root but with the previous profile. (meaning the regular users profile) if you use su - this will pull in root profile and you will get the correct path set up and will be able to type ifconfig..
i have had a lot of people get tricked up with the su and su - and they could not figure out why.
