Probably because /bin/sh is a symbolic link to /bin/bash.  Try piping to
bash instead of sh.

Most likely this occurs because the script is using a directory for its work
on a filesystem that's been mounted noexec. What does the following
commandline produce:

  cat /proc/mounts | fgrep noexec

I know that this isn't really the right place to discuss inprotect, but
there's not a lot of activity on the Inprotect forum and I'm trying to fix
an issue with getting nessus scans to work under a PPC linux system.

If anyone's interested in offering input, please check this posting I made
on the Inprotect forum board. Thanks.
