LinkedIn API to post Share using php oauth class

Question

The details:

I am using Manuel Lemos php oauth class and the login_with_linkedin.php script as reference.
I have successfully gone through the oauth process and retrieved the user's info using the API 'http://api.linkedin.com/v1/people/~'
I get an error when using the Post Shares API (http://api.linkedin.com/v1/people/~/shares)

Here is the relevent code from my last unsuccessful attempt;

// Scope settings

 $client->scope = 'r_fullprofile r_emailaddress r_network rw_nus';

// Call to API (Post)

$success = $client->CallAPI(
  'http://api.linkedin.com/v1/people/~/shares', 
  'POST', array(
      "format"=>"json",
      "comment"=> "Test"
   ), array('FailOnAccessError'=>true), $user);

Here is the error message:

Error: it was not possible to access the API call: it was returned an unexpected response status 401 Response: { "errorCode": 0, "message": "Unknown authentication scheme", "requestId": "8DWA0EBJTB", "status": 401, "timestamp": 1355774186502 }

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

I posted the same issue on the class creator's forum as well. He got back to me with an answer that worked.
