I have Real time change detection working but I would only lke to see the lines of the config that have change. I do not want to see the extra lines in between the changed lines. Is this possible? I dont see a setting for this.

I believe you can achieve this by going into the NCM settings, and then down to the Configs link in the Configs section.
Then go down to the "Config Comparisons" section, and change the settings to "Display the number of lines"
I THINK this is how it is done... but I have been wrong more times than right...
I had set this up before we started doing the RTCD, but the RTCD emails look almost exactly like our comparisons do.
Perhaps there is another option within the job, or email action, that qualifies this...?
Please let me know if I was wrong, or really wrong...

Yup your are correct. I changed the lines to 0. I also put a pattern in for lines I want to ignore. Works great now. My only qustion now is how do I get it to write the file to the config archive everytime. When I do a change multiple times on the same date it just overights the config in the config archive.
I do have this enabled Save a copy of each config into the archive directory, as it is downloaded. But it seems like if the date is the same it just overwrites it.
Should be on same page as other option.
Make sure you're saving the configs with enough of a difference in the names.
This is the template I use to save mine.
${NodeGroup}\${Caption}\${YYYY}-${MM}-${DD}\${YYYY}-${MM}-${DD}_${HH}:${NN}:${SS}${AMPM}_${Caption}_${ConfigType}.Config
This way it goes all the way down to the seconds. So, as long as I do not save the config 2x during the same second, I will have unique files for every save.
