Have you thought about maybe taking a different approach to this altogether? I'm assuming the point of this is to make it easier to manage the configuration of a group of similar servers...or to restore the configuration of a particular server in the case of hardware failure or a system reload, right? Personally I keep all the configuration files for my servers in a CVS module, and I use Makefiles to copy them to the right locations, set the proper permissions, and in some cases restart daemons, etc. This means all I need to do is checkout my cvs module, then run make to have the configuration files pushed out. I also have a perl helper script that does stuff like diff my files against the installed versions, etc. You may want to consider something similar...it works for me quite well. I can provide more info if you're interested. ___________________________________________ Michael Sims Project Analyst - Information Technology Crye-Leike Realtors ___________________________________________ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
