If you logged as "root" you can use "netadmin" command (f.e. in release D2.314.7), but some command you cannot use (f.e. "termstat") because OS don't know where is this command.
If you want works under "root" account (I not undestand for what reason), you must declear full path (to catalog where this command exist).
I suggest to use mtcl (for some command mtch) account. You can use command "help" - you can find which commands exist only under "mtch" account.
In Enterprise (R5.0Lx and higher) mtch account not exist.

hi

i want to use netadmin for security purpose. if you are logged in as mtcl, you cannot access security section under netadmin. for this you need super user access. (root)

netadmin is in /usr/bin

try to login as root with su - (don't forget the dash), and try again..

If you logged us mtcl and after use "su" + password will be problem with netadmin. I suggest when open connection use login "root" + password.
But in first case you can run "/usr/netadm/bin/netadmin -m" (this path for R5Ux).
