Hi there,
     we are using Netview/6000 4.1 and Nways Campus Manager to manage
several 8270, 2216 etc.
     At the devices we have defined two communities:

           user (read-only) and superuser (read-write).

     In NV6000 we defined also both, user and superuser. But only superuser
was defined in the SNMP Config.
     with 'Set Community'.

     We have also Netview Security activ, here we defined also two users:
user and superuser.

     The userid 'user' belongs to the group 'Oper',  this group should not
be able to reset the 8270 via the
     Nways Device Management Submap (PSM).

     But it seems that NV uses always the community with the 'set
community' attribute on - regardles of the
     NV6000 userid (and there predefined rights).

     Our goal is that no NV6000 user, which belongs to group 'Oper',  is
able to reset any device or interface
     via NV6000 or Nways Campus Manager.

     Thanks in advance,
