There are unsecured versions of all the snmpxxx utilities in 
/usr/OV/security/cmds by default.  They've been there since Version 6.0 at 
least and we are still shipping them in 7.1.4.  Some people copy them to 
/usr/OV/bin. it all depends on who you want to have access to them.  See 
the README in  /usr/OV/security/cmds.

Where can I find 'snmptrap_unsecure'?  I dont find it in /usr/OV.  Do I 
need to pull this off of a CD?
 
Thanks,

No.  You need nvsecd for the security check, just like most other NetView 
commands.  But just about anything you can do with event, you can do with 
snmptrap, and there is an unsecured version of that, snmptrap_unsecure. 
But NetView's snmptrap requires access to shared libraries in /usr/OV/lib. 
 If you need one that runs on a box that doesn't have NetView installed, 
use the snmptrap executable from MLM.  The syntax is a bit different but 
that's all.

Is there any option to use this facility on a Netview box that does not 
have any Netview daemons running?
