Hi Jack, list, maybe a difference between our systems but we have "head" in "/usr/bin/head", not "/bin/head" (all Solaris and Linux systems).
Try the following on shell console: "which head" (without the quotes) This should give you the head-location. If not, head is either not installed or not accessible through your PATH variable. In this case look direkt in /bin/ and /usr/bin/ to find the right location. If it's in /bin/ (like you configured your script) I have no clue why this should not work - if it's in /usr/bin/ change your script setting and retest the script. Hope this helps.
