I've had my initial look at the code, and right at the core of snmpv3_engineID_probe() is a call to snmp_sess_synch_response(). Which suggests to me I'd have to write an async version of snmpv3_engine_ID_probe. I might just do that. >> And while I'm at it, A question for somebody who works on the Perl API: >> Why is it so hard to get at the specific filehandle associated with a >> given session object?

OK, I'll get to it when I get a coupla tuits. :) L8r, Rob ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
