[Matthew Wagenknecht]

Or add it to /etc/profile  ..but the line "pathmunge /sbin" should have done
that..

Don't do that.  Logging in as root is typically a bad habit.

If /sbin is not in root's path, add it thus (assuming bash is your
shell): 

PATH=$PATH:/sbin

...you may need to add that to root's .bashrc file, but it should have
been set automatically.
