-now, netview receive from MLMs traps about nodes status up or down

-netview doesn' t ping anymore MLM's nodes so I'm sure the MLMs are working

-I know that when netview makes a poll to a MLM it does some snmp gets and

also snmp sets (to upgrade mlm configurations )

-in my case I installed ethereal, listen the net and I don't see any snmp

set! only gets from each MLM. what's wrong? the community names are good

the aliaslist never gets updated ! so, I have to do it manually??!! it's absurd!

(I manually did some sets, and I never received a trap for bad community name)

thanks,
Lucian
