There is generally a few lines of PHP code buth then there is database extracts. The problem with a simple database dump is my IDs would not line up with yours. The current exporter has problems anyway; I've broken it on several occasions. A proper export would probably need an interface type id, from that it can work out which files it needs. It would also have to parameterize the various IDs found in the database. It is possible, plenty of other projects have it, it just needs some work. If you are wondering about the IDs, consider a poller group with 1 row. The poller group has an ID, it refers to an Interface Type (which has an ID) and the poller group items refer to that group too (via IDs). Now you build you're shiny new poller group, it gets ID 10001. You export it and send it to me. I import it; oh hang on poller group 10001 is my experimental UPS group, it is now half overwritten! - Craig -- Craig Small GnuPG:1C1B D893 1418 2AF4 45EE 95CB C76C E5AC 12CA DFA5 http://www.enc.com.au/ csmall at : enc.com.au http://www.debian.org/ Debian GNU/Linux, software should be Free ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.
