[SML] web server oddity continued

[Bryan Manternach]

I'd be questioning the ISP why they are deviating from the standard 
methods.  And if they have moved the a2 utlities elsewhere.  Not having 
access to the server, either they have borked up their install, or put 
a2ensite in another directory that is not in your search path.

Try issuing  "find / -depth -print | grep a2ensite" to see if it is 
elsewhere on the volume.
