-- In the message of Sep 25, you write : --
	
	A while back I asked if anyone had an application that retrieved the
	cisco IP Accounting table via SNMP, preferably using the CMU SNMP
	package. The only response I got was from Carl Rigney
	(cdr@brahms.AMD.COM) who had written a Perl script to parse the
	output of the CMU snmpwalk command.

Daniel Karrenberg from CWI/EUnet Amsterdam wrote his own program to fetch the
IP accounting from a cisco. He chose to use a direct TCP connection to the
cisco in stead of using SNMP, for speed and the fact that some lower versions
of GS screw up on the SNMP variables with the IP accounting.

The only problem with this is that both passwords for your cisco are included 
in the sources, therefore you should be carefull with access rights on these
files.

People interested can find it at mcsun.eu.net (192.16.202.1) in 
~/network/cisco/account.shar.Z
