| hi!
I've sucessfully compiled and installed cvs source into /usr/local/bin
Now I was expecting the bash shell to know the 'cvs' command but it doesn't.
Even when I am in the /usr/local/bin dir I am unable to run the cvs command
but its there so what's wrong?
Sorry for the maybe stupid question but I'm pretty new to unix/linux and
would appreciate any help on that!
thanks a lot,
alex

Check your PATH env variable, and set it properly
Then, logoff, then log back on, if it still does not work.
