Hi All

Thanks to all who tried to help. Your suggestions were very useful. I got
things working now.

Here's what I needed to do:
Artsd: set the setuid bit in the permissions so it will run with root
priveleges (not sure this really needs to be done but it was the 1st
thing I tried)
insmod: This was only in the path if the user is root. I created a
softlink in a user directory. Also set the setuid bit in the permissions.
