Thanks to all those who searched. It appears there are three solutions: - the very last version of Tricklet has a Perl interface. Tricklet is available from dnpap.et.tudelft.nl. The official version (which is a really nice tool to make SNMP request from shell scripts) is in pub/Tricklet/tricklet.1.4.tar.Z. A beta-version (which includes the Perl interface) is in pub/btng/trcklt3b.tar.Z. Thanks for the DNPAP group of the Delft University of Technology which produces so many useful network programs. - there is a Perl interface for the CMU's SNMP package. The CMU stuff is available from lancaster.andrew.cmu.edu in pub/cmu-snmp1.0.tar. The Perl interface can be obtained from its author, Guy Streeter <gmstreet@guy.b30.ingr.com>. - there is also a commercial solution with the SMILE (Secure hierarchical network Management in LAN Environment) package. Contact <smile@ira.uka.de> for details. I'm more accustomed to Tricklet and therefore will use it. Thanks again to all the helpful people on the Net and specially to Guenther Schreiner <guenther@ira.uka.de> and Hal R. Pomeranz <pomeranz@nas.nasa.gov>.
