linux bash shell script

I find bash shell script runs on unix does not run on linux(SUSE). For example even the following simplest one gives me an error on SUSE,but unix. Is this something wrong with bash on SUSE? or linux shell script and unix shell script are different? #! /bin/bash echo -n "Give me a directory name :" set ans = $< echo $ans

I dont think bash is the default on unix. Most of the unix machines I have been on had the P shell or K shell as default. I believe if you type [echo $SHELL]Without the brackets it will return the shell you are in. You can change your default shell in unix if you have the correct permissions in your user profile. Another thought make sure you are using bash on SuSe. Good luck Ron
