David's travelling today (or he'd probably have answered already), but this (amongst many others) is one of the problems that Enhanced Profiles intends to solve. One of the requirements of that project is the ability to easily tell the difference between the state of the services as delivered, and customizations since. You could do this today by comparing with the last-import snapshot. (Which is how svccfg determines what to upgrade.) I haven't attempted to write the script to do so myself, yet. liane
