Pete,
        Yes the file is changing every few seconds or sooner.  Sorry, I just 
did a 'grab' of it and posted.  The 307 is due to me stopping it after 30 min 
or so and altering the few changes to the .conf file.  I will continue to 
monitor it over the weekend.  However, so far so good.  Thanks again for taking 
the time to help out.
 
Keith

        Hrmmm.... Something here doesn't add up. Is the .stat file changing
        every second or so? If not then the persistent engine has stopped. In
        fact, 307 seconds is scarcely 5 minutes - not 30. It appears that at
        the time you sampled the file your system was happily humming along at
        about 1 msg/sec... which is a lul for you. Remember that your average
        would be about 1.7 messages per second. I also note that the load and
        poll time indicated a good deal of "dead air" so the system was
        definitely not working hard at the time.
        
        Take a look at it again and make sure that the .stat file changes
        every 1-4 seconds or so. If not then the persistent server has stopped
        - at least the client instances will see it that way.
        
        Hope this helps,
