If it receives a request with an unknown community string, then it discards the request. It does *not* return an error response. As far as the snmpget command is concerned, this looks like a simple timeout, so it retries the request a few times, and then gives up. Which is what you are seeing. Crazy, I know - but that's what the SNMP specs require. Dave ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
