PATH in cron:

PATH=/etc:/bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin

crontab entry is:

59      *       *       *       *       root    /nsm/bro/bin/broctl cron

In my shell:

PATH=/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/root/bin:/nsm/bro/bin

sed: /usr/bin/sed /usr/share/man/man1/sed.1.gz /usr/src/usr.bin/sed
ifconfig: /sbin/ifconfig /usr/share/man/man8/ifconfig.8.gz
/usr/src/sbin/ifconfig


Uhmmm... I don't see where is the problem ...
