stsadm not recognized as an internal command
So I went to update farmcredentials for the central administration site via stsadm and got an error message that it was not recognized as an internal command.
I went into the systems environment variables and mapped the path to the bin where stsadm is located:
C:\Program Files\Common Files\microsoft shared\Web Server Extensions\12\BIN\stsadm
So now I open up command prompt and write "path" and it writes to the next line: PATH=stsadm.exe
Nothing else happened so I figured I was good to go but when I tried running stsadm I still get the message that it's not recognized as an internal command.
Can someone spell out what I need to do here? If you're just gonna post links let me tell ya, I have read all the articles out there about this and this is where it got me.

PATH is only for folder. You should add following in PATH:
C:\Program Files\Common Files\microsoft shared\Web Server Extensions\12\BIN-Bin

You might need to do an iisreset or something of that sort before it shows up properly.Kevin
