I've just had another weird one, the fstab file had revered back to
default, and consequently the CCTV/xeoma directory  was not mounted.The
pictures etc were being sent direct to the pi, and not my NAS server,
which they would have been.

I have corrected that now, and hopefully it should be ok.

Due to these silly problems, I have considered ditching the pi4 and go
back to my ubuntu desktop, but I'll give it a few more days yet.
