I'm sorry I'm not exactly willing to let go of the script.  Part of what
we do at Net4U is Linux System Administration.  Our time is charged out
for.  Let me know.
Thought that might be the case, think I'll continue to write my own script, 
using the
advice of Simon and a off list Tip from Richard Bain think I am almost 
there ......
Thanks for ya time anyway.

The knowledge that you have contributed to the open source caring and
sharing community, that I am sure you have taken from in the past 
(Unless
you a windows victim!!).
