I've been following this tutorial in order to get SimpleOpenNI installed on my mac but I keep getting stuck at installing the OpenNI and NITE components because it requires me to navigate to the folders in Terminal and then run "sudo ./install.sh". I do this and I get this error:

sudo: ./install.sh: command not found

I've installed Command Line Tools in Xcode and everything.

Thanks

The reason why that happens is because the script you are trying to execute needs the right permissions.

Type:

sudo chmod a+x install.sh

and then try again.
