Dale,

I had this one as well.  All you need do is make a /tmp directory (or mount 
an existing TEMP directory as /tmp) and it will work as expected.

Subject: 	Problems with bash and here documents

Can anyone tell me why here documents don't seem to work in bash?

My script contains the following:

bash$ cat test.sh
#!/bin/sh

cat << EOF

Why does this
not work as
expected?

EOF

The output of the script is:

bash$ ./test.sh
../test.sh: 49049764: No such file or directory


Thanks in advance.

Dale Wityshyn.
