After a reboot all returns to normal. Very strange. Thanks for all the
replies.
BTW: The crude backup script mounts the external USB device, checks for
a specific file in the root of the external device to verify the right
thing is mounted, runs the backup with various rsync incantations and
then dismounts the external disk. Very simple and basic and working
again... :-) Ken
