Try using that in the "#!....." first line.

Then switch to sh, by typing "sh", and then try and run the script.
It is bash shell.
But when I use "#!..." in the first line, it throws an error...always

Am not able to find the reason.

I tried #!/bin/sh and #!/bin/ksh

It doesn't work. What else do i need to try?

Try to exec the shell and pass the name of the script as an argument to the shell (not exec the script directly).
