Hi Dave.

Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately it seems as if development on the 
getIf tool has stopped. The last update of the web site was in 2004, so 
I'm not too confident of a reply to my query. But it still seems to be a 
very popular utility, and our client uses it. Because it does not 
display the sysinfo variables, they are saying our SNMP implementation 
is broken. But since it does the same on a stock standard Ubuntu 
net-snmp install, I'm quite confident that it is not my embedded install 
that broke something.

Does anybody have a net-snmp setup that actually does show this info in 
getIf?

Thanks for the help.

Gert
