Brad I would guess that much of your problem comes from the DBSNMP for Solaris: Version 9.2.0.1.0 ( version ).

Version 9.2.0.6 works fine for me ...

If you guys are really running BASE 9.2 (unpatched) ... ouch. I would guess that there are a bunch of fixes to the snmp stuff that your system does not have on ... perhaps making your assignment impossible until it is patched and operational. Received on Fri Jun 10 2005 - 13:55:38 CDT
