Hi All,
 
What should be the error code to be returned for a set request on 
1. an object whose STATUS is defined as obsolete
2. an object whose MAX-ACCESS is defined as not-accessible
 
As per my understanding of RFC 1905, not-writable is to be returned in
the above 2 cases. 
 
[From RFC 1905]
(9)  Otherwise, if the variable binding's name specifies a variable
which exists but can not be modified no matter what new value is
specified, then the value of the Response-PDU's error-status field is
set to `notWritable', and the value of its error-index field is set to
the index of the failed variable binding.

Please let me know if this (notWritable) is correct or noAccess has to
be returned for the above 2 cases.
 
Regards,
Suresh.
