Issue with backup of Fortigate Firewall after upgrade to 5.2 Code
Hello, we have been backing up our Fortigate firewalls that were running 5.0 code for several months without issue using the "Fortigate Firewall - version 3.0" template. We just recently upgraded to 5.2 code and are noticing that backups look to be timing out, where they will grab the first 5-6 lines of the configuration and then stop. If we rerun the backup it does work, we just have issues when running our nightly configuration backup of hundreds of devices at the same time that we see the issue.

Credential Profiles unique to particular users
Is there any way to have credential profiles that not all users can see? I would like to have a "admin" profile then just a "read-only" for general techs.. If not, how can I limit the access to NCM so not all opmanager users can use it. Is there a way to set the default for NCM for users to have access to a device group that has NO devices..then we will just add the techs.. or better yet a way to associate and AD group?
Reduced privileged user to do backup
We are trying to implement a reduced level user that cannot make changes but has access to perform backups. Currently we have a user that has priv 3: username devexpert privilege 3 password 7 However, when logging in with that user, it requires the command to display the running config to be different from what device expert is using.... you need to issue the command "show run view full" to get the running config. Is there a way to change the command device experts issues to dump the config? I

Advanced Custom Criteria for "line" blocks on Cisco devices
Hello, is there a possibilty to use the Advanced Custom Criteria in Device Expert (Build 5990) on the "line" configuration blocks like it is used for "interface" configuration blocks? My problem is, that other than the "interface" blocks (where every block is closed with a "!"), only the last "line" block is closed with a "!". I tried to use "^line" as block start and "^(!|line)" as block end marker, but this leaves out every other block, since block end and block start could not be the same line.
