Srinivas> I found some discussion regarding the code for sbsm Srinivas> on the internet....I was wondering if there is some Srinivas> implementation available for this. I have a working copy of SBSM that is currently only able to authenticate to a local unix account. IE, you can use a SNMP session to a local account on the agent side. However, the code, though minimally functional, is not complete. Most importantly it doesn't authenticate the agent to the manager yet and thus I don't consider the code secure [I'm a security geek, so I'm picky and both sides MUST be authenticated]. Thus, I'm not going to release it. Since the ISMS working group hasn't decided to go that direction it is entirely possible that I won't continue working on it much unless I get a lot of demand that we should support it anyway. The ISMS working group is supposed to be making a decision within the next 2 months (a recommendation from an evaluation team is due at the end of this month, though they've slipped that deadline multiple times). Srinivas> I have an application which needs session concept Srinivas> to be used with netsnmp server. The real question is why do you need the session concept? What is it you're trying to gain? Is it the security aspects associated with the session, the alternate forms of authentication, or something else? If something else, I might be able to give you suggestions. -- Wes Hardaker Sparta ------------------------------------------------------- The SF.Net email is sponsored by: Beat the post-holiday blues Get a FREE limited edition SourceForge.net t-shirt from ThinkGeek.
