Please take one step at a time. What you presented in post#16 is NOT the directories from post#12. Use full absolute paths for a test, i.e. paths rooted at / and not using variables to be expanded.
Obviously your grep version behaves differently. There might be other versions installed on your node, like /usr/xpg4/bin/grep. Try with this one. If that fails, we need to look further.
