I think I have said this before :-) I would prefer that all apps behave like snmptranslate, especially since they do not have the ways of snmptranslate to return all matching objects. $ apps/snmptranslate -IR system SNMPv2-MIB::system $ apps/snmptranslate -mALL -IR system LaserJet-Series-9000-MIB::hpsystem Given that it is not at all predictable which object you get back, -IR should never have been the default for the apps. /Niels -- Niels Baggesen - @home - Århus - Denmark - [EMAIL PROTECTED] The purpose of computing is insight, not numbers --- R W Hamming ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the new InstallShield X. >From Windows to Linux, servers to mobile, InstallShield X is the one installation-authoring solution that does it all.
