Magnus, There's an outside chance a buddy of mine may know what to do - I will check with him but no promises unfortunately.
It could take a few days. The lib on SourceForge is called NET-SNMP-TCL - Com21 who became TurboNet (in a manner of speaking) used to use it a lot in addition to the labs I had at C-Cube Microsystems/LSI Logic (after the purchase). I'd like to ask you how you are keeping those things calibrated but that's even more off topic I suppose than the topic of this thread. I will let you know what I find out. Best Regards, John W.
