I'd say you have your path wrong... I'm guessing that it is /home/mill/emc2/nc_files/slot.ngc

The search function on this forum sucks and I never use it anymore. I use instead Google site search like this

Open up google and use this in the search bar.

stuff I'm searching for site:http://www.linuxcnc.org

This has the advantage of also searching the wiki site and other EMC resources.
