Another possibility is that the file is in DOS format with a carriage return (^M) at the end of each line. That carriage return character on the first line "#!/bin/sh^M" will make the kernel look for a nonexistent shell. A lot of "smart" editors will hide that character and helpfully reproduce that format on each line when you write the file, so you either need a keen eye on the status line or a tool like 'od' to see that '^M'. You can try running 'dos2unix' on the file and see if that fixes the problem (file size will change). -- Bob Nichols "NOSPAM" is really part of my email address.
