@chipcmc: That's the man page for the program /bin/echo, not for the shell-builtin

@rijeshpp: Are you sure you're running ksh? Check, and if possible post, the output of the following commands:
Code:
rpm -qa | grep ksh
ls -l /bin/sh
echo ${.sh.version}

and, also if possible, the she-bang line of your scripts?
