Hi Glen,

Yes that works thank you. I'm confused by two things though.

1 I'm sure I didn't create a user with ./tc addUser for my previous 
tinderbox, nor was it necessary to add the -u argument.

2 Section 8.9 of the README 
http://tinderbox.marcuscom.com/README/x740.html says "To use tinderd 
scheduling via the web you must first create a User:". I'm not using the 
web interface.

My previous tinderbox was using MySQL.

thanks

Chris
