Import host CSV file?

[Skip Montanaro]

    Jon> Has anyone writen a script to import a large number of hosts from a

No, but it shouldn't be too difficult.  I use Python (2.3 comes with an
easy-to-use csv module of which I am a co-author), but I suspect you
wouldn't have much trouble with Perl, Tcl or Ruby presuming they either
support csv file reading or that your csv file doesn't exercise csv's corner
cases.

What sort of information do you have in your csv file?  If it's just basic
name, alias, ip sorts of stuff, then generating host definitions from that
should be a breeze.
