Not A Valid Identified

| Hey all,
Forgive me, this is my first shell script, but I can't figure out why
I get the message:
': not a valid identifieread" 'rSnareServerPath'
Here's my code...
echo "What is the IP/Hostname of the Snare Server? If You Don't Know,
Hit Enter"
read rSnareServerPath
if [ -z $rSnareServerPath ]; then
echo "Snare Server Path Not Set"
else
# Append "network=specified hostname" to 10th line of audit.conf
sed -e "10a network=$rSnareServerPath" < /etc/audit/audit.conf > /etc/
audit/audit.conf.old
mv /etc/audit/audit.conf.old /etc/audit/audit.conf
fi
Thanks in advance

Perhaps you edited the file using an editor that puts CR LF on the end of
lines (DOS style), rather than just LF.

Hmmm.. interesting point... I did originally do it in 'vi' then did
some stuff in notepad.. I'll redo it in 'vi' and see what happens..
Thanks for the input,
