I'm still not sure you understand how it works. Take a look at dmoz_cron.cgi .. all it does, is slice up the RDF file into smaller parts, email (if set), and define the correct import commands to run nph-import.cgi. We DON'T have our own import utility built into this, as it is all done by RDFS2.pm (/admin/Links/Import I think).

The command that calls nph-import.cgi passes along the --rdf-update string, which means that it will check each link, to see if it already exists in the same category, under the same name/URL. If it does, it will skip.

I agree on this one. The only reason it does this, is because I used the basic routines out the the LSQL database setup script, which obviously cleans out custom fields, etc. It should be pretty simple to do. Just take out the code that cleans this out, and then have a few delete_all() commands. I'm not sure if pugdog wants to take a look at doing this, or when he is finished with his modifications, I'll take a look into it.
