Solve : .profile Script Issue - command not found?

1.	Solve : .profile Script Issue - command not found?
Answer» In my .profile script on my Sun Solaris machines I use the FOLLOWING command to retrieve the host name into an environment variable: HOST=`uname -n` This WORKS fine on Sun, but on my Linux machines I get the following message when the .profile runs and the variable is EMPTY: ksh: ./.profile[10]: uname: not found What syntax changes do I need to make to get the same funcationality to work on Linux that works on Sun? Linux Version: 2.4.21-47.ELsmp Sun version: SunOS 5.8 Thanks!Try specifying the full path to uname (usually /bin/uname). Or you can use /bin/hostname in place of "uname -n".Fantastic, that worked. Thank you. It's always the little things. I guess I was attempting to CALL those commands before the path had been established. No problem.
