The PATH shell variable has a very special meaning in any shell based on Bourne shell syntax. It is used to specify a list of directory that will be searched to find utilities that are being executed by your script when the commands used to execute those utilities do not you absolute pathnames.
So when you execute the command:
on line 8 in your script, you create a problem that causes your script to fail 36 lines later. Choose a different variable name and change your script to consistently use that revised variable name.

latd.conf
LATD.CONF(5) File Formats Manual LATD.CONF(5)NAME
latd.conf - LAT configuration file
SYNOPSIS
/etc/latd.conf
DESCRIPTION
/etc/latd.conf is a shell script (run by /bin/sh) that is run when latd is started up using the latcp -s command.
It contains commands used to customise lat for your site and usually consists of a list of latcp commands.
latd.conf is run with a minimal PATH and a minimal environment. The variable $LATCP points to the latcp binary used to invoke the script.
EXAMPLE
# /etc/latd.conf
# This is a sample configuration file for latd
# it is run as s shell script from latcp -s with a minimal
# environment and PATH. latcp should be invoked using the
# environment variable $LATCP.
#
# You can fiddle with all the latd parameters you like in here,
# the first service announcement will not be made until this
# script completes.
#
# Set the multicast timeout to 30 seconds
$LATCP -m 30
# Add another login service
$LATCP -A -a ZAPHOD -r 100
# Add a queued reverse LAT service to a printer on a DECserver
$LATCP -A -p /dev/lat/printer -Hdecserver -Vdecserver -Q
# Only advertise our service in groups 1-10 and 200
$LATCP -G 1-10,200
exit
