FreeBSD 4.11-Stable, bash 2.05. 

I am getting an error when I try to launch a daemon
script manually as root, or in /usr/local/etc/rc.d:

-su-2.05b#
/usr/local/koha/intranet/scripts/z3950daemon/z3950-daemon-launch.sh
-su-2.05b# su: illegal option -- s
usage: su [-] [-flm] [-c class] [login [args]]

the perms on it are:

-su-2.05b# ls -la
/usr/local/koha/intranet/scripts/z3950daemon/z3950-daemon-launch.sh
-rwxr-xr-x  1 www  www  2750 Mar 29 19:57
/usr/local/koha/intranet/scripts/z3950daemon/z3950-daemon-launch.sh

it is related to a web based application.

The line in the script that calls this is:  

su -s /bin/sh -c $KohaZ3950Shell -  $RunAsUser &

The su man page indicates that the -s option isnt
supported....how can I edit this so this function
works??
