Wes, Thanks for the replay. My script is used to check our hospitals interfaces. I do an snmpwalk to check for any ports connected to a certain IP address. I then clean up the data and post it to a webpage. However I get so many of the general errors it would be hard to use this in a production environment. Any thoughts would be welcome.
Thanks, Laurence F.

My guess is that your trying to set the connection state object (probably to kill a connection) and the agent you're talking to doesn't support write requests (properly at least) to that object. -- Wes Hardaker Sparta DISCLAIMER: The information in this message is confidential and may be legally privileged.
