Weird thing happening in Redhat 9, kde3.2.1
1. I Open konsole
2. I'm at bash with my regular username roYal
3. Lets say I type something such as ifconfig, or service. I'll get unknown command.
4. I do su, enter password, now I'm root. I type ifconfig or service and I still get unkown command.
This is weird since I"m su, and it wont work. So i try one more thing, System > More programs > Terminal program - Super User Mode. I then enter the password, and Konsole opens.
I then try ifconfig, now it works. The service command also works.
The main question is, why wont these administrative commands work when I su under normal konsole. Why do I have to open the Konsole in Super User Mode for this to work?
