Firewall Error


I am using the firewall script taken from online generation at "http://www.slackware.com/~alien/efg/".
I am getting the following error:
/etc/rc.d/rc.inet2: /etc/rc.d/rc.firewall: \
bin/sh^M: bad interpretor: No such file of \
directory

Why I am getting this error?

I have done chmod +x on this script as given in the beginnig of this file.

Regards

Hi.

I think, that this is problem with "windows-like" end of line. Do you copy and paste it in windows?
Just delete that "^M" mark and the end of /bin/sh, and watch all you rules to delete this mark.

Since the firewall script is more than 25000 words, I am unable to post it due this restriction imposed at LQ.

I did check that ther were no ^M characters in the firewall content as seen on Slacware box. But still I will apply the equation to remove those if they were somehow invisible. I shall come back withthe result.
