I've seen something like this happen when there is a non-printing

running /bin/sh, your shell tries to run "/bin/sh^G" -- which obviously
doesn't exist.
Can you run "xxd /root/bin/scripttest" and show us the output? If you
don't have xxd on your system (it usually is packaged with Vim) you can
try "od -x /root/bin/scripttest".
xxd/od will show right away if there is anything funky on the shebang
line that shouldn't be there.
thanks,
Thomas
xxd scripttest:
