Hi Dan!
The '/bin/sh' command is usually a symbolic link to '/bin/bash'.
Check this by ls -l /bin/sh (should show it pointing to bash).
Maybe the link has gotton broken some how.
Change the '#!/bin/sh' in the scripts to '#!/bin/bash' and see if
they then execute ok.
If so, as root, 'rm /bin/sh' , followed by 'ln -s /bin/bash /bin/sh'
to fix the link.
