I fixed the python module "client.py" to accept the concatentated label
and index, because from the source code you can tell this was allowable.
It was a regular expression error that only allowed one digit instead of
multiple digits.

I'll try and submit a patch.

I note that you are taking the returned get value, which appears, from the code you sent, to return a string, and are passing it back to set, declared as an integer. You may want to add 0 to it before doing it, just to ensure that it can be accepted as an integer.

Got it figured out! Woohoo! 
 
The problem was concatenating the label with the index! 
 
The label and the index need to be passed separately to the Varbind()
function! 
 
Example: 
 
Varbind(tag = 'adGenEasyBridgeRowStatus', iid='20', val = '5', type =
'INTEGER') 
 
or just: 
 
Varbind('adGenEasyBridgeRowStatus', '20', '5', 'INTEGER') 
 
Not : 
Varbind(tag='adGenEasyBridgeRowStatus.20', iid=None,val='5',
type='INTEGER') 
 
It would work with the single digits for some reason. 
 
I wish that was more clear in the documentation or else I need to work
on my comprehensive reading skills some more. 
 
 
BTW, iid and val can actually be integers, the python module will
convert them to strings. 
 
Thanks for the help.

I don't have my python refs handy, but I do recall the automatic number conversions giving me some grief. I note that you are taking the returned get value, which appears, from the code you sent, to return a string, and are passing it back to set, declared as an integer. You may want to add 0 to it before doing it, just to ensure that it can be accepted as an integer.

HTH,
