r.los and r.drain

Bryant,
You are misinterpreting the usage for these GRASS commands:
(lines deleted)

When trying r.los:

Mapset <PERMANENT> in Location <BASIN>
GRASS 4.0 > r.los dem2 los2 763830,4321140
Sorry <los2> is not a valid option
Sorry <763830,4321140> is not a valid option

ERROR: Required parameter <output> not set:
    (Raster map name for storing results).

ERROR: Required parameter <coordinate> not set:
    (Coordinate identifying the viewing location).

Usage:
r.los input=name output=name coordinate=x,y [patt_map=name]
   [obs_elev=value] [max_dist=value]

Your command line should read: r.los input=dem2 output=los2 coordinate=763830,4321140

The same logic holds true for r.drain, and most, if not all, of the other
GRASS commands. Good luck!
