Hi, Sorry to bother you but i don't understand this problem at all.
I have a machine that isn't allowing me to do some simple things like the w command, etc. For example: ffff:~$ ps bash: /bin/ps: No such file or directory but: ffff:~$ which ps /bin/ps ffff:~$ ls -l /bin/ps -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 12844 Apr 22 1998 /bin/ps ffff:~$ /bin/ps bash: /bin/ps: No such file or directory so how can it know that the command is there and it (and the directories above) are read/write/executable, but not run? I can do the df command which is in the same directory! I rebooted to make sure that the memory wasn't corrupt or something, but that didn't help. (What i did before this happened was to use dselect on this debian linux machine: Linux ffff.ddd.com 2.0.29 #3 Sat May 31 13:35:27 EST 1997 i586 unknown but somehow it failed to find the libc6 libraries even though they were there before. I don't know which is the chicken and which the egg at this time. But the problem of not exceuting something that it knows is there seems fundamentally broken.) Any help would be greatly appreciated as i'm off the air until i can figure this out. Thank you. ... universero trio...
