Hi,

> 1. Is there a provision to integrate Netdisco with other systems?

sure - the DB can be accessed from other systems and the main net-snmp PERL
module can be utilised in other ways too

> 2. What about high-availablity of Netdisco?

what type of high availability? ie why are you concerned

> 3. Now netdisco works fine with Postgre SQL data base. Will it be available with different data bases? For example: MySQL etc.

errr....why?  what feature can MySQL give - certainly there are particular
methods and classes that PostgresQL has that netdisco uses (and arent present
in eg MySQL)

> 4. Any specific hardware requirements?

i've run it on low end PII systems. Apache and the postgresDB are the big
concerns regarding memory and CPU requirements

> 5. Any specific software requirements?

listed in the INSTALL - PERL dependencies and the main ones.

> 6. What are all the OS, netdisco is compatiable with?

I've run it on various Linux (Redhat EL, CentOS, Fedora Core, gentoo)
and on FreeBSD. I've seen people running it on more exotic things

> It would be very helpful if some one addresses my doubts which have furnished in this mail.

what doubts did you raise?  just random questions so far.
