Hello Magnus. Thanks for replying my mail. It appers I didn't explain my self enough. I don't want to use the proxy functions by rereading the config file I simply calling them from another function I wrote and send them the proper args. Anyhow I think I found my bug. The proxy functions that were written were not intended to be read in runtime. In order to use them in run time one needs to add "unregister_mib" calls before registring with the proxy. Morover In order to erase proxy configuration and use the mib regularly one needs to add "regiser_mib" call after calling "proxy_free_config".

The purpose of proxy_free_config is to clear the old proxy config in preparation for a reread of the config file. Thus, when proxy_free_config is called all proxy entries should be cleared and that is what seems to happen. During a configuration reread proxy_parse_config will be called on every line and reestablish all the proxy entries. I would'n depend on those functions as I would doubt that they really were intended to be public at all. /MF ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
