I don't know whether to laugh or cry :-)

Thanks Gordon that does the trick, though I need an ice pack for my head 
now after banging it against the wall for the last day or so :-D I think 
this is what's known as "character building".

BTW the Jira says

"man pages of qpid are correct:
--sasl-config DIR"

But I've just tried man qpidd on my system (for 0.10 broker) and got

      --sasl-config FILE
              gets sasl config from nonstandard location


Are there any plans to make the trace logging in this area more useful?
Clearly qpidd --sasl-config /home/fadams/qpidd.conf didn't work, but 
there was no indication that it had failed to read the sasl qpidd.conf, 
similarly I tried temporarily renaming qpidd.sasldb and that failed (as 
expected), but there's nothing in the trace logs to suggest that qpidd 
couldn't find the qpidd.sasldb specified in the qpidd.conf

Cheers,
Frase
