Errors 'a plenty

I believe all the errors below are related since they started at about the same time, that's why I thought it would be more useful to post them all in one post, as it might bring more insight in what is causing the problem.

Error Nr 1 (BASH commands not found)

Every time I start up a session in SSH (disabled root login) I get this:

PHP Code:
-bash: id: command not found
-bash: [: =: unary operator expected
-bash: id: command not found
-bash: dircolors: command not found
-bash: id: command not found
-bash: [: =: unary operator expected
-bash: tr: command not found
-bash: tr: command not found
-bash: whoami: command not found
-bash: mesg: command not found
-bash: dircolors: command not found 
Error Nr 2 : Cpanel crons

(would this stop some cpanel crons from running? I got some emails like:
/bin/sh: line 1: /usr/bin/python2: Permission denied
/bin/sh: line 1: anaconda-ks.cfg: command not found

Here are some subject email headers:

PHP Code:

PHP Code:
-rwxr-xr-x 1 mailman mailman 8194 Mar 2 14:40 /usr/local/cpanel/3rdparty/mailman/cron/disabled* 
These permissions are correct, right?

Error Nr 3 : Awstats not working

PHP Code:
AwStats used to work fine, but now I get this message:

Code:
Content-type: text/html
Internal Server Error

      Unable to open document (./awstats.pl) at cpaneld.pl line 1228
   main::dodoc() called at cpaneld.pl line 516 
Error Nr 4 : Cpanel Disk Meter

In cPanel this is displayed:

PHP Code:
Disk usage :Serious problem while fetching quota data (quota): Permission denied (-1) Megabytes 
Some changes I made recently

Does anyone know where this may come from? I made some changes to several things such as

PHP Code:
1 ) chmod -R 700 /etc/rc.d/init.d/* 
but I already tried chmod -R 777 /etc/rc.d/init.d/*, i still got the error.


PHP Code:
2 ) chmod 700 /bin/rpm 
PHP Code:
3 ) chattr + i /etc/passwd , /etc/shadow, /etc/group, /etc/gshadow, /etc/services 
PHP Code:
4 ) edited /etc/fstab : /home + nosuid,nodev 
PHP Code:
5) edited /etc/host.conf
order bind,host
multi on
nospoof on 
PHP Code:
6 ) edited /etc/inetd.conf, commented telnet, talk, ntalk 
PHP Code:
7 ) edited /etc/profile TMOUT=3600 
PHP Code:
8 ) edited /etc/login.defs PASS_MIN_LEN changed to 8 
PHP Code:
9 ) disabled talk,ntalk in /etc/xinetd.d/talk, ntalk 
PHP Code:
10 ) cd /usr/bin/
chmod 000 perlcc byacc yacc bcc kgcc cc gcc i386*cc
chmod 000 *c++ *g++
chmod 000 /usr/lib/bcc /usr/lib/bcc/bcc-cc1 
So, what did I do wrong and how can I fix it?

Thanks!

This is the contents of my .bashrc file for the user I log in with :

PHP Code:
Code:
# .bashrc

# User specific aliases and functions

# Source global definitions
if [ -f /etc/bashrc ]; then
        . /etc/bashrc
fi 
Is it normal?

Here is /etc/bashrc if needed:

PHP Code:
Code:
# /etc/bashrc

# System wide functions and aliases
# Environment stuff goes in /etc/profile

# For some unknown reason bash refuses to inherit
# PS1 in some circumstances that I can't figure out.
# Putting PS1 here ensures that it gets loaded every time.

        DNS=`cat ~/.dns`
        PS1="\u@$DNS [\w]# "
else
        if [ -e "/var/cpanel/users/$whoami" ]; then
                eval `grep DNS= /var/cpanel/users/$whoami`

                if [ ! "$DNS" = "" ]; then
                        echo -n "$DNS" > ~/.dns
                        PS1="\u@$DNS [\w]# "
                fi
        fi

        mkdir -p ~/public_html/cgi-bin
