Bart, I'm trying to understand the release strategy of Net-SNMP. Once 5.7 has been released, I understand there will be a 5.7.1 release that includes patches. Looking at the diff file that you have sent these seem to be 5.6 patches to be merged into 5-7 patches. Was 5.7 created and released wh

Hi, I am getting a strange error when running my perl script. I am attempting to initialise a Perl CORBA: Orb in order to access the data to be managed by SNMP (which I can do succesfully using a standalone perl script) Adding the Corba Orb initialisation request my $orb = CORBA::ORB_init

Dave, Thanks for that. Your suggestion results in the snmpget request correctly indicating "No such instance currently exists at this OID". The perl script (which is effectively the CPAN perl script slightly modified) did output "unknown var value type: 0" as a result of the $varbind->setValu

Bart, Thanks. I have now managed to get a Perl subagent built with 5.7.1 pre1 running on windows. One issue I have is that I am doing an SNMP-Get request on a table row that does not exist. How can I indicate "No Such Instance"? There are error codes defined for the NetSNMP::Agent but I canno

Bart, My understanding is that "embedding Perl in Net-SNMP" are the Perk SNMP Extension modules from the CPAN website. Ideally I would have liked to have used these, I hadn't realised they had not been ported to Windows. However - even without the "embedding Perl in Net-SNMP" modules I should
