I understand that the scripts need to be written, therefore, someone has
to do it. Someone has done it for Cisco devices and some Alteon devices,
even someone has an Extreme patch that adds support for a few of their
switches. But noone has done it for Foundry or Juniper yet?

All of my attempts to do this myself have failed miserably.

JFFNMS has the one thing that I actually need (Device config managment
with automation and a DIFF Layout for tracking changes), yet I don't
know how to write all of the required files needed for all of the
devices. Nor do I have time to learn php so that I could actually write
them.

There has GOT to be more out there that desire to use JFFNMS with
Foundry and Netscreen devices. 

I have all of the necessary devices and all the MIB information.
Someone must know how to write the code.

Can someone please help?
