This did not come across correctly. Please pipe the output to "od -v -t x1" or some other hexification method. It would probably help if the pattern were not so trivial, perhaps a repetition of "abcdefghij1234567890", but that's secondary.

HTH,

I'm still trying to see the problem. You can't just cut-n-paste the text from a data corruption problem - I need to know what *bytes* were returned, as it may not be a valid character stream. Please run `snmpset -Ox` and the subsequent `snmpget -Ox` of the string, then cut and paste both commands and their responses and post 'em here.

Thanks,

Mike
