All,

For those looking to get fully automated configuration backups I have the 
answer!

I am using WGET - but you can also use CURL

I am using the following command:

wget --post-data 'Submit=Download' 
https://<username>:<password>@<host_ip>/diag_backup.php -O  config.xml

Note: use http if your are not using https (shame on you!)

Note: you can also wget the status.php page with a normal wget command 
(i.e. without the need for POST data information) - but the problem with 
this is that you get a HTML based page that also contain other details.

This can be put in a script and run by cron on a daily, hourly or whatever 
basis.

I hope this helps somebody as I been trying to figure this one out for 
ages!!! I can sleep better tonight now.

Regards,

Mon
