This script needs to say:

	. /root/env.sh (bash)

	or

	source /root/env.sh (*csh)

Otherwise, the environment variables presumably set in the "env.sh"
script won't be picked up.

To confirm this, you can do a:

	...
	/root/env.sh
	env | sort
	perl /usr/bin/tv_grab_...

and compare that output with

	...
	. /root/env.sh
	env | sort
	perl /usr/bin/tv_grab_...
