	This looks like the classic problem with the current directory not being in
the PATH environment variable, where DOS users typically expect it to be....
	Try `export PATH=$PATH:.' when you start the shell (this puts the current
directory into the search-path), or use `./dbutil' instead of 'dbutil' (the
same goes for whatever is called from that script--if it's not in your PATH,
you need to specify where it is).
