Re: [netdisco-devel] [Netdisco] Error with maps in VMWare image

[Charles G. <wo...@ju...>]

Twopi and neato are both in the vm, however, its not in the location
that netdisco is looking for.  By default, twopi and neato are both
installed into /usr/local/bin and netdisco is running from a user
that's shell doesn't include that directory in it's path.

As a work around, I've asked Rick to put in two symbolic links as a
quick fix.  To resolve the VM appliance for others, what's the best
way to fix this?

I'm not sure which user is actually running these commands when
running from the webpage and where/how to adjust the path for such.
I'm guessing it is the owner of apache, which in a default freebsd
install is www, which has no shell.

Thoughts or ideas?
Thanks
Charles
