Hmm, I'm confused.  What I can't work out is why it *used* to work but
it doesn't work now.  

All I actually need to work at the moment is owfs such that the
measurements from my temperature sensors appear in /mnt/1-wire.

If I run owfs manually as follows:-

    owfs -c /etc/owfs.conf --usb=ALL

then absolutely nothing happens.  The /etc/owfs.conf file is:-

    ######################## SOURCES ########################
    #
    # With this setup, any client (but owserver) uses owserver on the
    # local machine...
    server: server = localhost:4304
    #
    # ...and owserver uses the real hardware, by default fake devices
    # This part must be changed on real installation
    # server: FAKE = DS18S20,DS2405
    #
    # USB device: DS9490
    server: usb = all
    #
    # Serial port: DS9097
    #server: device = /dev/ttyS1
    #
    # owserver tcp address
    #server: server = 192.168.10.1:3131
    #
    # random simulated device
    #server: FAKE = DS18S20,DS2405
    #
    ######################### OWFS ##########################
    #
    #mountpoint = /mnt/1wire
    #allow_other
    #
    ####################### OWHTTPD #########################

    http: port = 2121

    ####################### OWFTPD ##########################

    ftp: port = 2120

    ####################### OWSERVER ########################

    server: port = localhost:4304


If I run owserver do I need owfs as well?  As I said I'm very confused
and can't see why it used to work but doesn't work any more.  I
*might* have kicked something off manually before that I need to
automate now.

In /etc/init.d there are startup scripts for owftpd, owhttpd and
owserver.  There's nowhere that's running owfs at startup, but as
noted above running it manually doesn't seem to help at all.
