HELP!!!

I am receiving a flood of authenticationFailure traps from the NetView
server OS to the netview trapd - it is making Netview unusable due to the
very high rate at which they are coming in.  I have checked the community
string settings for both /etc/snmpd.conf and xnmsnmpconf - they match.  And
I have stopped and started snmpd to make sure that the current settings
take.  Is there anywhere else that NetView or AIX (NV is running on AIX
4.3.3) hides the community string that I need to look at?  Right now I have
NV turned off - until I can resolve this it has to stay that way!

Thanks,

Brian
