No, the ASN encoding takes care of putting things in network byte order. I had
assumed that the type you were working with was IpAddr, since others have
reported issues with this type as well.
Let me make sure I understand you correctly - you have an agent running on
a 32 bit PowerPC, returning an unsigned32 value to a 32 bit intel machine. Is
that right?
Is the management application based on net-snmp as well?
Does this occur with all objects? I just gathered ifInOctets from my PPC
machine from my x86 machine, and got the same values as I get querying
directly on the PPC machine.
What release are you using?
