So that our > net-snmp-users group can get to know the reason behind this. The "reason" is that it's a bug. Most of the code has been developed on 32-bit systems, where a "long" variable is the correct size for a (32-bit) IP address. So sending an IP value could use "sizeof(long)" - exactly like the various integer-based types. This assumption fails on 64-bit systems, where "sizeof(long)" is typically 8 bytes. > I came to know from the release notes of net-snmp version 5.3.1 that some > ipaddress encoding issue has been fixed for 64bit processor. You still haven't answered the original question. What version of the Net-SNMP agent are you using? Dave ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
