With SNMPv1, a read-only community (not user) trying to SET a value will result in a noSuchName error. With SNMPv2c (or SNMPv3), a read-only community (or user) trying to SET a value will result in a noAccess error. With SNMPv1 and SNMPv2c, a completely unknown community will be silently dropped, and no response will be returned at all. With SNMPv3, this will return an authenticationFailure report. See the RFCs for the full gory details. Dave ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: Tame your development challenges with Apache's Geronimo App Server.
