No. Each SNMP request is handled separately, and has no knowledge of any other request sent to the same agent. The only place that knows whether a given agent responded at all is the application sending the probes. If you need this sort of behaviour, then *you* are going to have to code it. There isn't a short cut. Dave ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc. Do you grep through log files for problems? Stop!
