well it's simple really
the ssh-copy-id routine does not copy [in my case] the client
/root/.ssh/id_rsa.pub to the server
man says thats the default but that's not what is happening.
whatever it copies allows me to run a shell script from a console
without passwords but not from cron
hmmm cute!
When I copied the contents of client ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub to server
~/.ssh/authorized_keys
network transfers in scripts run from cron are all working now
What I can't understand is how some were working and some were not
*ssh-add -L* produces a key which appears to be out of date
something I am missing here but I do now have an operating network.
Thanks Joseph, I just started again and did it the 'old' way.

Have looked in all the usual places.
any help/suggestions?
The environment maybe, enable debug output on the job and redirect
or make sure the output is logged or picked up and mailed to you.
More than likely the ssh config that used to work no longer does.
For example you had a custom section for a host in ~/.ssh/config
that is no longer valid or that file is not even being read etc...
