Hi list,

I am getting the following error at the NV event viewer:

Wed Jul 06 13:53:32 2005 nvserver         A IBM Incorrect Community Name
(authenticationFailure Trap)
SPECIFIC   : 0 (hex: 0)
GENERIC    : 4
CATEGORY   : Node Configuration Events
ENTERPRISE : ibm  1.3.6.1.4.1.2.3.1.2.1.1.3
SOURCE     : Agent (A)
HOSTNAME   : nvserver
SEVERITY   : Warning


...and, at the /usr/tmp/snmpd.log file:

07/06/05 13:34:03 EXCEPTIONS: authentication error: invalid community
name: communityname1
07/06/05 13:34:08 EXCEPTIONS: authentication error: invalid community
name: communityname1
07/06/05 13:38:02 EXCEPTIONS: authentication error: invalid community
name: communityname2
07/06/05 13:38:03 EXCEPTIONS: authentication error: invalid community
name: communityname3
07/06/05 13:39:11 EXCEPTIONS: authentication error: invalid community
name: communityname3


The NV is version 7.1.4 running on an AIX 5.2 box. The communityNames.conf
file at /usr/OV/conf has 5 different community names on it, including the
one from the NV server. 

The errors that are showing up at the snmpd.log file shows exactly the
community names that were typed into the communityNames.conf file.

Any ideas ?

Thanks in advance.

Mario
