Indeed. One is an account on the local machine and there is another one 
on the domain. I login using the local account but the samba share 
belong to the domain user.
Running cygwin with the domain user allows running the script. Changing 
the permission to 755 also fixes the error.
Thanks!


One weird thing though, the directory permission are 700 and yet I can 
list the content of the directory, cd in it and add/delete files. So 
permissions are not consistently checked. But then, I assume it's 
because all that is done by Windows/Samba while the permission check on 
the script is done by Cygwin? Same thing with executing binary (I was 
able to execute a binary file copied on the share even though I couldn't 
execute scripts)?

The permissions on the interpreter are OK.
$ ls -l /bin/sh
-rwxr-xr-x 1 nahor Administrators 472064 Jul  1 18:20 /bin/sh
$

For that matter, scripts running off the local disk run fine.

Looks like the same problem of inconsistent account ID, setting the 
permissions to 755 or running as the domain user fix the "bad 
interpreter" error.
