hi friends, another question.
i have as a root some programs that i have to share with other users.
how can i do???
for example i want to share my adsl-start connection to the other users.
thanks.

well, you can:

chmod o+x adsl-start

for example, and that allows others to execute that program.

i try it but nothing, i think because all the programs i have installed are on the root directory.
Where can i install the programs to share with all the users???
and what are the command to share this programs???

thanks

Generally when you install applications the are put to /usr/local/bin or /usr/bin but this is justa a one case. Now if you do what lakerdonald said you caan use that program (adsl-start) with the other users. What error did you get when you try this. You must put the error lines here so we can comment them. And i didnt understand something you said
"i think because all the programs i have installed are on the root directory. "

how? what /usr includes ?
