Itschak and Radoslaw, I believe the permissions for /bin/sh should be 1755, displayed as rwxr-xr-t. Note the 1 for the attribute, displayed as 't', activates the Sticky Bit. This causes Unix to execute an MVS program by the name of SH instead of trying to execute file sh in the /bin directory. SH exists in SYS1.LPALIB as an alias for FSUMUSSH. I've never seen the permission bits set to anything else. Admittedly, I have not tried turning off the Sticky Bit in order to execute file sh in the /bin directory, so perhaps it would still function properly. Is there a compelling reason to turn off the Sticky Bit?
