You probably didn't set the permissions on the script(s) properly they should be set 755 (readable, writable, exectuable by the owner;readable and executable by the group and everyone else), to do this (if you don't already know) at the command line as root, or the owner of the scripts, in the directory where the script(s) is/are type: chmod 755 <scriptname> or chmod 755 * This is a problem that I have encountered numerous times myself, I seem to just about always forget to do this ;-) > -- Michael D.
