Version of shell on the machine where it is failing is out of date, or you're not executing the script on the failing machine with the same shell. On the machine that is having the problem, what is the output of this command:

Code:
echo $SHELL

If it's not bash or ksh, then you're problem might be solved by adding one of these two lines as the very first (no blanks before it) line of the script:

Code:
#!/usr/bin/env bash
#!/usr/bin/env ksh

This should force the script to be interpreted by bash. You could also try ksh if bash doesn't seem to work.

NAME
insmod - Simple program to insert a module into the Linux Kernel SYNOPSIS
insmod [filename] [module options...] DESCRIPTION
insmod is a trivial program to insert a module into the kernel. Most users will want to use modprobe(8) instead, which is more clever and can handle module dependencies. Only the most general of error messages are reported: as the work of trying to link the module is now done inside the kernel, the dmesg usually gives more information about errors. COPYRIGHT
