Hi Robert, Thanks for this.
What is the procedure for requesting such an enhancement? Do you work on current net-snmp development?

Unfortunately not. There won't be any more releases in the 5.5 line (from us; your distro may continue to support it, but probably only with security related patches). But you should be able to fake it by including relevant code in your shared library. Robert ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Don't Limit Your Business.
