You should be able to copy /usr/bin from the remote system. There may be some changes depending on what is installed, but the basics should all be the same. The real question is what happened to /usr/bin ?? Is it a separate fs that didn't mount (is /usr there?)? Was it renamed by accident? Anything else missing? Do you run tripwire? -- Pete Nesbitt, rhce -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
