Run ifconfig without root privileges
So I couldn’t run ifconfig on a client’s RedHat Enterprise system today because my account didn’t have sudo rights.
01:31:06 # ifconfig
bash: ifconfig: command not found
Here is how I got it to work:
01:43:05 # whereis ifconfig
ifconfig: /sbin/ifconfig[email protected]:(RC=0):/ibus/DIDOMAIN_AHSFL_P149E2/logs
01:43:10 # /sbin/ifconfig
and viola, it worked.
