You have to edit the Gemenviron file to define the NAWIPS location
(the top of the directory tree where you installed GEMPAK) prior to
sourcing Gemenviron (which adds the $NAWIPS/bin/$NA_OS tree to your path).

If you still have problems, try: echo $PATH
to verify that the correct executable directory has been added on to the
end of your path.

Also, verify that the command "uname" is in your path since the Gemenviron 
script
uses that to set the path for the executable directory.
