"-bash: et: command not found" when using "su -"


Hello,
I am using RHEL. Everytime I use su - , I got my PATH and the "-bash: et: command not found" error msg. Does anyone know what is it?
Thanks!

Try, as root:

Code:
yum reinstall coreutils
If you don't have access to root any other way, reboot to single user mode and start the network manually.

Can't it be simply a mistake in $HOME/.bashrc or some other configuration file sourced at login? It looks like an incomplete set or let command.
