Hi All,
I need to change the user that telnet's to my devices. When I change it in nedi.conf, I get 'login failure' when I look at the device configs. Does anyone know how to change the login information of discovered devices without initializing the database? Thanks, Yosef |

My guess is you could connect to your nedi database with the mysql client and do this:
Replace "newusername" above with the new username and replace "oldusername" with the old username. Of course I could be wrong, hopefully you have a backup of your database. :) |

That's actually a weakness (especially with the new version). Since a login is only probed once, the only "GUI" way to achieve this, is to mark the device for deletion and wait for rediscovery
 I know it could be better, but one who knows his SQL has a clear advantage here... |

There is another GUI way to do it, for those of us that don't know MySQL very well.
I used phpMyAdmin, another OSS app that puts a GUI face on your MySQL DBs. http://www.phpmyadmin.net/ |
