    Hi All,

    I am getting this "errpt" entry when sending a shellscript from my Windows SSH client to our AIX 5.3 ML8 box. This is not reproducible on boxes with AIX 5.3 versions less than ML6 from what I have found nor does it reproduce on early versions of AIX 6.1.

    Any help or guidance on this would be greatly appreciated,

    Thanks,

    Paul

    Further to the previous error report, I get this error as well which does include a symptom code and which maybe more helpful - has anyone seen this before and hopefully resolved it.

    Thanks,

    If so, your script is failing and the error report is blaming sh. I've seen this problem with scripts run from cron in the same way.
