Re: Re: Problems with path groups in multipath-tools

[Greg Freemyer <greg.freemyer@gmail.com>]

Your problem is the very first line of your script

#/bin/sh

should be

#!/bin/sh

Note the missing ! in your line.

#! is a magic sequence to Liunx/UNIX to run the program as a script. 
The interpreter is whatever is on the rest of the line.

ie. #!/bin/perl is for a perl script.
