Great, thanks for the info Duncan!

So just to make sure I'm not going to hose something: <g> - I ran the test 
and discovered 2 invalid "users" and 1 invalid "virtual site".. I chose "no" 
for my repair option on this run... The error on the virtual site is in the 
"home" directory, so all I have to do is run the script again and when asked 
to "remove database entry", I'll give it the "Y" to go ahead... correct.? 
<and that won't take-out the home directory..?>

      database | 198
        system | 197
         total | 198
         valid | 197
       invalid | 1

repairing 1 INVALID virtual site(s)...

               | retrieving information from system...
          home |          group = home
          home | ERROR (does not exist in apache configuration)
          home | ERROR (does not exist in system)
               | <y> - remove database entry
               | <n> - do NOT remove database entry
               | remove? [yn] n
OK

The user errors are in mySQL and Chilisoft, should I let it attempt to 
repair them as well, or is this standard errors for these two programs..?

      database | 349
        system | 351
         total | 351
         valid | 349
       invalid | 2

repairing 2 INVALID user(s)...

      chiliasp | ERROR (entry does not exist in database)
               | retrieving information from system...
      chiliasp | ERROR (invalid home directory)
      chiliasp | ERROR (does not exist in system)
      chiliasp | ERROR (entry not in database OR system)

         mysql | ERROR (entry does not exist in database)
               | retrieving information from system...
         mysql | ERROR (invalid home directory)
         mysql | ERROR (does not exist in system)
         mysql | ERROR (entry not in database OR system)
OK

Thanks in advance for the help...
