Do these look OK?

No, that was the first thing I checked.

The up2date feature works. Support for FC2 ended a month or so back. I
could have done a 'fresh' install but that would have reformated my
partitions and the loss of all files in home directories, mysql databases,
etc. I do daily backups but is it better to overwrite a 'fresh' install
with possibly out of date files? Catch 22. :-)
Thanks
