That's very strange.  I've installed the shadow package
several times on BL2 without this happening.  Did you use
installpkg to install it?  What command did you use to 
set the password?

  
In /etc/profile, /sbin is in the path 
    
Do the following to determine the actual path for root:
----------
echo $PATH
----------

cat is in /bin  and id is in /usr/bin

  
and in /etc//rc.d/rc.M too. 
    
/etc/login.defs also sets path (and that file is overwritten
by the shadow package).

Cheers,
Steven

Hi,

Did you use installpkg to install it?
I used pkgtool to install the shadow package.
What command did you use to 
set the password?

I use passwd.

Do the following to determine the actual path for root:
----------
echo $PATH
----------

/bin 
/usr/bin

are in the path

and in the path set by /etc/login.defs.





Cheers
Gilles
