  What value are you trying to get?

  Depending on the value of the DATEFIRST you'll get different results...

  There might be a more efficient way to do it.

  Regarding the leading zero: What will you display for October, 1st? 10/01, 10/1, or 0/1?

  How does this work for you:

  select replace(str(month(getdate()))+'/'+str(day(getdate())),' ','')
