Agreed. At least up until the first time that a privileged account runs one of the Net-SNMP tools. That would then automatically generate the indexes, which would then be available for later uses. Actually, the one disadvantage of the patch that I supplied is that it'll prevent "personal" MIB directories from being indexed. At the moment, they're normally owned by the user concerned, so that person can create/update the index file. If the indexes are moved to the /var tree, then that would typically not be generally writeable, so such personal indexes couldn't be written there. But I always expected this patch to need some tweaking before it was ready to go live. Dave ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
