It worked for me the first time, but after I posted the message I had to
do the same thing too.
If you don't want to have to do the echo every reboot you could add this line to /etc/sysctl.conf :
kernel.exec-shield = 0
I would rather do the echo command only when required, but newbies may
be uncomfortable poking values into the kernel, on a regular basis.
Have a nice day.
