Toby, First off, thanks for continuing to evolve this great software! Let me explain what I'm looking for...
I have several systems which are all polling the same set of devices; one is our primary system, one is at our DR site, and one is being setup now to eventually replace our current primary. The config file for each is *almost* identical. Specifically the *** General ** section needs to be different in order to specify the correct server in the cgiurl= section; potentially, others might have different paths for the various directories, though that's not a problem for me. What I'd like to see would be something like an Include /path-to-file That way, I could have my $SMOKEPING/etc/config with statements like: ======================== *** General *** owner=... contact=... imgurl=... cgiurl=http://myserver/... Include $SMOKEPING/etc/common_config ======================== Where $SMOKEPING/etc/common_config would have everything which isn't system-specific. This would certainly make it much easier to keep multiple systems in sync without the need to use 'sed' prior to copying configs between systems. Thanks for your consideration.
