Is there any way to automatically download a scheduled report to a .nbe file and to a html file so that you don't have to press download on the webinterface each time a report is generated. As far as I can understand, here is where the cli comes into the picture, but I can't seem to have any luck with making the omp-cli do as I want. Could anyone please explain what config-flags I need to set in the omp-cli or how to solve through the webinterface to for example do the following:

some customers of Greenbone do indeed use the cli tool to automatically
configure and start a  scan and later pull the results in arbitrary formats.

I am currently assembling a howto-document for this.
However, it is pretty straight forward anyway. So, reading
the "omp --help" should provide all the clues.
Of course it is necessary to have openvas-manager
running properly because the communication protocol
needed here is OMP.

BTW: With the newest releases you don't need
to take care of the scheduling yourself anymore.
The manager will take care of it.

All the best

	Jan
