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.

Yes, the filesystem is mounted noexec. Do this then:

  mount -o remount,exec /tmp
  lynx -source http://install.nessus.org | sh
  mount -o remount,noexec /tmp

Hi,
Do you know which Nessus' Plugin is responsible for testing HTTP server in
terms of numbers of hits?  I've got the message on the server that the
MaxClients setting is reached.  The "Denial" Plugin is disabled, so I know
that's not the one which is causing the errors in the http_error.log.
Any help?

Thanks,

Magda

Or:
	export TMPDIR=~/
	lynx -source http://install.nessus.org | sh
