Agreed--well done.

Any ideas what cron job it was that failed, and why, that first aroused 
suspicion? I'd like to know better what kind of things to watch for.

I can't help thinking that a less clumsy intruder could have done a lot 
more damage. Hopefully the additional precautions will make it that much 
harder to be "less clumsy".
