After 7+ years? Are you nuts, Robert? I have enough difficulty remembering what got changed (and why) after 7 days! I don't have the time ATM to look up exactly when this change was made. (It took quite a bit of searching last time). But I seem to vaguely recall that it was probably part of Mike's SSI stuff. > Seems like a good idea to me, > eve it it's optional instead of the default. After so long with a fixed backoff, any change to the Net-SNMP timeout behaviour *must* be optional (and default to off). Yes - this is probably worth doing at some point. If you want to see it in 5.3, then you'd better get moving quickly! Otherwise it'll have wait until 5.4.
