Re: Using NET-SNMP API to Receive Traps

Dave,

Thanks for your help on this. I had already managed to get the 
netsnmp_transport_open_server and snmptrapd_add_session calls working in my 
code for port 162 before your response but it was good to get confirmation 
of this from yourself.

Thanks for your time in replying.

Chris
