Infact I didn't have any virus protection on any of my servers, but before posting here did install NAV and do a check. Virii found: 0 ;) I did find, and fix the problem. In fact it's a problem I had and fixed several months ago and totally forgot about. A client has a system that automatically uploads an 'update' file every hour and it is munged into their e-commerce set up. If the file is too large it can overload the system. This is due to limits of FileMaker and AppleEvents. Their POS people are supposed to have the system set up upload 10K chunks but apparently this is happening. As a result I'll write an AppleScript that will chop any oversized files before munging. Of course the real solution is to use a 'real' database, but this is what the client uses and hence it is the back end here. The problem here is not the database, nor the OS, but the flakey mind of the overworked/underpaid admin.
