Already have host, even though it doesn't!

Help

Hi,

I’m trying to add a new device, different DNS name and ip from any other already in the DB, but I am getting an error telling me “Already have host lg-ucp-raicam (OpenWrt)”

now there already are 2 other devices of the same type in the DB, and they call themselves OpenWrt. (Even though they are not, not great SNMP implementation)
But nothing with this hostname or IP.

Thanks

Tom

Can you run ./validate.php and post the results here?

No problem @murrant:

This is most likely because they have the same sysName. Just force add the device.

Yep that did it.
Is there a way to make the error message a bit more descriptive?
