OK, now that I appear to have sorted my permissions out in general, I
still have a problem creating crontab.

I run crontab -e and it fires up emacs (my editor of choice) but can't
create the crontab file becuase the temp version is unreadable.

I also tried to open it using another editor by was denied access.

Any thoughts anyone?

Thanks
Paul
