Thanks! That's a good, basic example to help get me started. I am
intentionally not using a database for the logging, because it doesn't
make much sense to add the overhead just to increment a number on a
single line of a file whenever something's downloaded.
Thanks, also, to Mukul Sabharwal for your suggestion.
I'll give them both a try and see what works best in my environment.
Regards,
Jamie
