Hi Rado1x

Thanks for ur kind effort.

But I'm not clear from ur suggessation. I would like to explain my sceniro below :

I do have a application that acts as a server & sends snmp traps to the registered clients.

Inside the application the community string is set to Public.,

Know my customer wants to set the comunity string to some other value other than public & I should provide a facility to the outside world so to accept the customer's desired string. I'm planning to do this via., a Script which accepts the community string from the user & then call the actual Unix Program by passing his desired string as a command line parameter.

Currently we have hard coded by setting the community string to public. And know I want this to be in a mutable format.

That is he might want to change from public to some thing else., & I don't know what else can be used other than public. Like is there any thing like Private & any thing else.

So, I want know to what other values that the commuity string can be set with other than public. Hope it is clear know.
