Hi,
"bad style" and "foreign hosts" not sure what to make out of that if
the hosts are freebsd hosts or are hosting freebsd. At any rate for sure
we can use snmp to query hosts which are running snmp daemons.
Hmm... If querying hosts with snmp is considered bad style, what is
an acceptable protocol to query a host?
You can query my "foreign host " in style 8)
