I'm starting a script and directing the output to a file.  This is the
command:

/usr/local/sbin/lynx-dyn.sh >> /var/log/lynx_dns_update.log

In the script (amongst other things), I have lines like this:

echo "Some meaningful output"

The script runs and the commands execute but my logfile never shows the echo
command output.  Can anyone tell me why and what I need to do to fix it?

Thanks,

Drew
