Oh, there's more in /var. I'm going to ignore the binary files as I 
don't think they are current and I don't know how to edit them anyway.
In fact the installation is a bit old I could do with tidying it all up

Dunno if these configuration files couldn't use a persistent 
environmental variable for domainname.
