happyborg, 
Finally got my psuedo DNS working today. If anyone has an ssh/scp based script that works on the CLI but not under cron I may know the answer!
Next is to play with rsyslog and then get back to bugfixing #vdash
I was hoping vdash had matured but today I thought of a new thing. 🤔
Not a big deal but I have other fish I want to fry!
