Hello-

I am programming Python (2.4.1) scripts to run on our Gentoo boxes and am
having a bit of trouble I was hoping you could help me with.  My file,
hello.py looks like this:

#!/usr/bin/python
print 'hello, python'

I add execute permission to the file and try to run it as follows:

myprompt $ ./hello.py

and get

-bash: ./hello.py: /usr/bin/env: bad interpreter: Permission denied

running /usr/bin/python brings up the python shell, so that's in place.

What am I missing to run these files (they run fine with I type in 'python'
before the filename).  BTW, I have the same issue running Perl scripts which
is why I'm asking the question here.

Thanks for your help,

--greg
