Help with a cron job to export usermapper data

I've got this setup in a shell script, that on it's own works just fine.

#!/bin/bash

/nas/bin/server_usermapper server_2 -Export -user /home/nasadmin/usrmapbackup.passwd
/nas/bin/server_usermapper server_2 -Export -group /home/nasadmin/usrmapbackup.group

I add it to crontab and it generates this error.

NAS_DB environment not defined

What do I need to do to get this working?

Oops..you are running from the script, i thought you were doing directly from crontab. Add these lines

export NAS_DB=/nas
export PATH=$PATH:/nas/bin

NAS_DB=/nas /nas/bin/server_usermapper server_2 -Export -user /home/nasadmin/usrmapbackup.passwd

I added NAS_DB=/nas to the first line and still get the same error when the script runs.
