sbin and /usr/sbin

[Tommy McNeely]

in /etc/profile, I have had to comment out the "if" and "fi" lines to make the "sbin" paths automatically be part of a "users" path.. (like for traceroute)... why do I have to do this??

# Path manipulation
#if [ `id -u` = 0 ]; then
pathmunge /sbin
pathmunge /usr/sbin
pathmunge /usr/local/sbin
#fi


just cause its in the sbin path does not mean that only root can run it... sbin is for "static-binaries" right??
