Nut upsuser - Mar 2007 - Cannot move /bin/upsdrvctl to /sbin

Hi,

In Red Hat /etc/init.d/halt script, it expects upsdrvctl to be in /sbin rather
than /bin which sounds normal considering the power of that command.

If I move this file to sbin, this is what I get when invoking it:

[root@serveur1.sassine.eu nut-2.0.5]# mv /bin/upsdrvctl /sbin/
[root@serveur1.sassine.eu nut-2.0.5]# which upsdrvctl
/sbin/upsdrvctl
[root@serveur1.sassine.eu nut-2.0.5]# upsdrvctl
-bash: /bin/upsdrvctl: Aucun fichier ou r?pertoire de ce type

Many thanks.
Marc Recht?

I don't know why it failed (it should work!) but you might prefer to
symlink one to the other.

What if you kick off a fresh shell?  I'm wondering if somehow it's
caching the location of the binary (as csh does).  I've never seen
bash do that before, but there's always a first time :)
