Eric,

Your shell can't find the ksh binary. So either the ksh binary isn't
installed ('rpm -q pdksh' to check) or the first line in your script is
pointing at the wrong location. Either /bin/ksh or /usr/bin/ksh works on
one of my RHEL 3 servers. It sounds like ksh is installed, so I'd bet on
the latter.
