Yep, it's pretty new, and documentation is usually pretty low priority.

I hope you weren't planning on bypassing those. If you check the recent snmpd.conf man page, the com2sec token can specify a context, which you could easily make the same as the community string, and thus the sub-agent would get passed the community string as the context. com2sec -Cn host10-10-10-1 mynet default host10-10-10-1 com2sec -Cn host10-10-10-2 mynet default host10-10-10-2 -- Robert Story; NET-SNMP Junkie <http://www.net-snmp.org/> <irc://irc.freenode.net/#net-snmp> Archive: <http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?forum=net-snmp-users> You are lost in a twisty maze of little standards, all different. ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: YOU BE THE JUDGE.
