on my netview server (SLES 9.1).

I create a user 'netview' in 'root' group... from 'netview' desktop is

However, 'netview' user cant execute important command for managing daemons
(ovstop, ovstart, netmon...) and for managing netview databases (ovtopofix,
reset_ci)...

'/usr/OV/bin' directory... but however he still cant execute some command..
