Thank you for the quick response. Please call me Sean ;)

I found that command in the list archives, back in March or April. I ran
the command with the -DV options as you suggested and here is what I got:

NOTICE: Starting daemon, version 0.11rc2, config: /etc/box/bbstored.conf
Housekeeping process started
Starting housekeeping
Finished housekeeping

I gave it about 10 minutes to change, but it did not after "Finished
housekeeping".

I had not yet delved that deeply into the configs, so I guess shame on me.
I'll look at it and make any necessary changes and get back to you on the
change in behavior. After a quick google, isn't that setting for clients?
Does the client get installed on the server automatically? I was under the
impression that it did not, but I may have inadvertently installed the
client at 1 am the other day.

Yes, that is correct. For the last few days, as I've had time, I've been
concentrating on just getting the server itself running correctly.
