Hi,

sam is in /usr/sbin

type /usr/sbin/sam

chech your path with

echo $PATH

Add /usr/sbin to your path in /etc/PATH

[Pete Randall]

You need to have /usr/sbin in your $PATH. This can be set in /etc/profile or your individual profile. Typically /etc/profile sources /etc/PATH to set the PATH.

/usr/sbin is usually not in a normal user's PATH, so that is why you got the not found.
Dont you need root access/previlege to run sam by default?
$ /usr/sbin/sam
Sorry, you must have superuser (root) privilege to enter SAM.

logged in as root i can excute sam, but i need to be allow other users to excute sam, would the changed suggested fix the issue??
thank you

You need to set up restricted SAM. As root enter sam -r to enter the configuration menu for allowing other users to access all or part of sam

[Robert-Jan Goossens]

add /usr/sbin to the PATH of the user, start sam -r to add tasks to the user.

Best regards,
