Thanks Glenn,
All good advice. Still feeling my way around *nix. At this point I don't
really have much time to sort this out and troubleshooting *nix takes 
some time for me. I'll have a quick look at the cron schedule but 
won't be able to do much else. I'm thinking about cleaning everything 
out (with .conf backups of course) and doing a clean install of 
everything.

Thanks for the ideas.. I'm sure they will come in handy

Kind regards,
Ken
