Hi. SNMP and TCL

        Hello,

        I am new to the list, but I have read all past messages. though I can not still figure out what is going on :-)

(Q) Have you agreed in what protocol will be used to communicate with the configuration server/daemon/apache module/whatever?

*If it is SNMP:

If any of you is thinking in doing it in tcl/tk the front end (since it runs on UNIX, MAC, Windows) I have an address you might want to check. It is about a set of freely (and quite good) available TCL libreries for SNMP.

I would like to join anyone who plans to make the GUI on tcl/tk, since it is what I know, it is portable and I really think is nice. Please let me know so not to duplicate efforts :-)

*TELNET like (show config, etc):

Another reason for choosing tcl/tk would be that if finally the telnet approach is chosen and its automation is achieved through, say, expect, it would be also nice to do it in tcl/tk since expect is also an extension for tcl/tk

Do you need help?
