"nmc on fedora 14 
Hello,
Have you checked so SELINUX is disabled. You can get this behavior if it is on.

Hej Lars,

SELINUX is set to permissive, and it doesn't seem to interfere.

But I found the solution, it seems that the script gets confused about the 
environment for some reason and setting 

#
# main
#
PATH="/bin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/usr/sbin:$PATH"
export PATH
ARCH=`uname`
PKG="LGTOnmc"
DBNAME="lgto_gst.db"
DBLOG="lgto_gst.log"
case "$ARCH" in
    Linux )
            base=`rpm -q --qf "%{INSTALLPREFIX}\n" lgtonmc 2> /dev/null`
            ;;

base="/opt/lgtonmc"  instead solves everything and nmc can be configured. Now i 
just have to figure out how to install the "real" java runtime environment :o)
