hi,
what's the status of the perl module bundled with net-snmp? what are the
chances that one of the current net-snmp developers will have time to
address current bugs? is joe marzot out of the picture? [i've poked
around a bit, looking for him ... i don't think he works at nortel anymore
... but i haven't figured out where he has landed]
The Perl module is still being supported and has even had new features
added such as the TrapReceiver module in V5.2.
Right now Wes Hardaker is our main Perl guru. I don't think Joe has
been around for a while. I do some work on the Perl modules when needed.
i'm not trying to whine here ... just trying to figure out my next step.
i rely on this module heavily ... i've written ~30,000 lines of perl code
over the last few years which depend entirely upon SNMP.pm ... we run
these scripts hourly, using them to monitor and manage our collection of
switches, routers, firewalls, remote access servers, and, more recently,
hosts running general purpose OSes (running the net-snmp agent!). i'm
very grateful for the net-snmp project and for the SNMP perl module --
this package has made my life way easier.
however, i'm increasing finding it difficult to code around the bugs in
SNMP.pm.

I can take a look at both bugs. If I find anything, I'll update the bug
report.
along with others which i haven't posted ... e.g. increasingly, as i
enlarge my MIB file collection, SNMP.pm is unable to translate Object
Values into OIDs. i would prefer not to walk thru all my code and
manually translate Object Value strings into numeric OIDs ...
Your two bug reports look great. The detail you posted should help a
lot with finding the problem. Can you post a bug report for your other
problems?
