hello list I'm having a very strange problem with my centos 5.5 system. For some strange reason, this machine cannot find ldapsearch: [root@VIRTCENT13 ~]# ldapsearch ldapsearch: Command not found. [root@VIRTCENT13 ~]# whereis ldapsearch ldapsearch: /usr/bin/ldapsearch /usr/share/man/man1/ldapsearch.1.gz ldapsearch currently lives at /usr/bin along with a lot of other really very useful tools. /usr/bin is also _clearly_ on my root path:i [root@VIRTCENT13 ~]# echo $PATH /usr/kerberos/sbin:/usr/kerberos/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin And here are the permissions and modes for this tool: [root@VIRTCENT13 bin]# ls -l ldapsearch -rwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 65336 Aug 11 09:20 ldapsearch And other things in this directory (like yum for example) work just fine: [root@VIRTCENT13 bin]# yum repolist Loaded plugins: fastestmirror, priorities Existing lock /var/run/yum.pid: another copy is running as pid 11750. Another app is currently holding the yum lock; waiting for it to exit... The other application is: yum-updatesd-he Memory : 65 M RSS (107 MB VSZ) Started: Sat Nov 13 18:04:22 2010 - 00:57 ago State : Running, pid: 11750 If you feed the command line the full path to ldapsearch it works as intended. I was wondering if anyone had any idea why ldapsearch isn't being found? thanks! -- Here's my RSA Public key: gpg --keyserver pgp.mit.edu --recv-keys 5A4873A9 Share and enjoy!! _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@xxxxxxxxxx http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
