        Should work now. Read below, I made a fool of myself.

        Fourth round (bad day if you ask me). I fixed the script, ran it,
checked that it worked and ... forgot the install it. Later on the cron
ran the old script and restored the bugous permissions. I figured that
in the middle of a very nice play I was watching yesterday night. Back
home I ran the script + installed it.

        Thanks for your patience,
