FYI, I picked the method name 'submit()' because I'm an AS400 programmer 
and the AS400 Control Language 'submit' command is used to send a batch 
job to the AS400 job queue.

I quote from the class.rFastTemplate.php tutorial at 
http://www.astrofoto.org/people/roland/rFT/tutorial.html

"The assign assign() sets up an association between a tag and a value. 
Internally, this sets a variable for later use; it does not actually do 
the substitution, that happens when you call parse()."

Okay, I'll put that in. But just to be clear, it did try to create the 
mount directories before it gave that error, right? What was the failure 
message?

It could be. The command it uses is '/sbin/pidof -x check_loop'. What is 
the output of that command on your system?

This is what I get on mine:

[joe@jupiter joe]$ /sbin/pidof -x check_loop
1024

Thanks for the input and stuff,
Joe

P.S. I just finished a late breakfast. I'm guessing it's getting close 
to your bed time.
