I appreciate your offer and it certainly would be nice to get this solved,
but it not longer critical for me to do my job. Alao I will be super busy
this coming week.

I don't know how to answer your question - I am a developer not an admin -
but if you give me the commands needed I can execute them. I don't have
access to the physical host - it's 2,000 miles away from where I am. I
could try and ask an admin there, but they are super busy too and they've
moved on to other things (We are really short staffed.)

Thanks!
