Subject: xterm: can't exec /bin/sh

Sorry for the dumb question but with X-Win32 running I typed in xterm and
it complains as the subject states. I had a symlink from /bin/sh to
/bin/bash but that wasn't working. I tried copying /bin/bash to /bin/sh and
/bin/sh.exe and setting mode to 555. Still no luck. What am I doing wrong?
All other X11 tools seem to work just fine.

system: coolview dll nad X11r6.3 from the same place.
