It has previously been noted that there's a licensing/legal issue with the code for snmpnetstat. This is affecting the release of 5.3. Dave is working on a rewrite/fix that eliminates the code in question.
The problem is, the same code is in 5.2.2. I believe we have three main choices. 1. Do nothing. 2. Drop snmpnetstat for this version. 3. Wait for Dave Shield's fix for 5.3 and port it to 5.2. Costs: 1. We're in legal jeopardy. 2. We lose functionality that's been around since at least 2003. Google gives 56,000 hits. 3. Mucks up our release schedule. Benefits: 1. Easy 2. Fixes our legal problem and we can stick to the release schedule. 3. Fixes are legal problem and we ship a complete product. ----------------- Votes? -- This communication is intended for the use of the recipient to which it is addressed, and may contain confidential, personal and or privileged information.
