Thanks to all who replied.

I'm a bonehead. I botched the cron (yes, there was plenty in the qfiles dir
;). I re-reran crontab for crontab.in in and everything works like a charm.
It did help hearing the replies none-the-less (to understand overall
function).

Thanks for the help and patience  <:) --duncecap.
