If you are sure the binary/program exists, it could be that your PATH variable is broken or not set.
Just do this to set most of the common paths:
export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin
There's no risk to the above, because it just takes your current PATH variable and adds more to what is already existing.
To make this permanent you can add this to your ~/.bashrc file........
Later versions of ls try to be helpful and smart to prevent errors in dealing with files with spaces that were tradtionally a pain.
However if you need the raw/real filenames, this can break scripts or if you are pasting into a csv etc....
How do you make ls not add the quotes?
Add the capital "-N" switch
ls -N
You could also add an alias to make it more permanent
Do this to add it to ~/........
Let's say you have a VM file that uses 200G of dynamic space, but really only has 40G in usage. If you add fles and delete, at some point the file will be larger than the current space you are using.
Take this image which shows is using 71G of space on the host:
The actual space being used inside the image is about 43G as we can see:........
Just edit your ~/.bashrc and add this at the very end:
export PS1="realtechtalk.com"
Then your prompt will look like this:
bladeblox:uptime
08:47:14 up 48 min, 1 user, load average: 1.00, 1.07, 0.96
If you wanted a dollar sign at the end then you would change it like this:
export PS1=&........
Perhaps you've just seen this in the bash prompt:
-bash-4.1#
Instead of the expected user@hostname#
It is probably because you are missing .bash_profile or .bashrc in your home directory
Check for yourself:
ls -al ~/|grep -E ".bash_profile|.bashrc"

Usually this is because when you created your user you added a user but didn't create their home directory and/or for some reason your .bashrc and .bash_profile in ~ (home) is broken/missing.
In your home just create the following files with the following content to solve it:
.bashrc and .bash_profile.
To apply it just relogin/start a new bash session

This is one thing that has me wondering about SMF. It is apparently a known issue but in the latest version and new install nothing looked right because it was using http://127.0.0.1 to find everything! How on earth would it ever do this or think it is normal?
Excerpt of crazy html code it produces that causes the issue:

Centos 6 requires GLIBC 2.12 however a lot of new programs you would want to compile may need a newer glibc. You can't remove the old glibc since the whole OS is based on it but you can install the updated glibc alongside it and do an export pointing to your updated GLIBC.
mkdir ~/glibc_install; cd ~/glibc_install
wget http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/glibc/glibc-2.14.tar.gz........
Have you have a command ask a question such as cp or move?
You can do this:
echo y|cp * /tmp/othercopy
However it may still fail if your bashrc aliases have the "-i" flag see this post here.........
This through me for a loop when I would do a cp -rf or mv -f nothing would get overwritten even if piping y or yes to the command.
Type alias and you'll see why:
alias cp='cp -i'
alias l.='ls -d .* --color=auto'
alias ll='ls -l --color=auto'
alias ls='ls --color=auto'
alias mv='mv -i'
alias rm='rm -i'
The -i is a safeguard against messing things up but however does mess things up worse when you know what........

if you type Export and see something like this:

Most sites assume and tell you to check your .bashrc or /etc/profile /etc/bash.bashrc which may not apply if you've unknowingly or forgot that you setup a proxy from your GUI such as Gnome.
To check in Gnome if you have a permanent proxy do the following:

This is something many people and especially businesses worry about, or at least they should. Before throwing away a hard drive, returning a hard drive, or especially Warrantying/RMAing it, you should wipe the drive.
Linux provides the "shred" and "dd" utlities which work quite well. It seems even a single pass is good enough but by default shred will do 3 passes.
Here's an example of using shred in Linux (I use a custom made distribution from........

I like dd, although it only reads it, usually a read test of the entire disk will uncover if your hard drive is bad in some parts. This is a good thing to do at least once a month, a lot of times bizarre program behavior, laginess and crashing/unnmounting problems etc.. are due to a failing disc and SMART won't know it or indicate a problem:
We must also remember there's never a guarantee, I've found that ever since we moved to larger and more platters per drive with 1TB drives........

As much of a computer nerd as Iam, I'm usually a late adopter to technology for a few reasons. Ifeel most new hyped technologies and electronics are mainly fads, and I'm also cheap.
Adopting later means you avoid the bugs, kinks and most importantly pay the lowest price, that's me being cheap again :)
