As long as the box getting hit with the incorrect community name and
sending NetView the trap is a Solaris box, you should be able to get the
info you want.

Solaris comes with an SNMP agent which can be installed, but by default
is not, and people run 3d party SNMP agents on Solaris, so I can't be
too specific, but you'll probably find an snmpd.conf file someplace
under /etc that has a variable (usually a number from 1-3 or 4 with high
#s the most detailed) to set logging or Trace levels, and you'll see
also in there where the log file is for your system.  You can also
enable syslog and get info there.

Just set the log level up to the highest option, recycle the SNMP
daemon, and check the log file, and you should see the detail you're
looking for.  When you've found what you want, be sure to set the
logging level back down.

Hope this helps.
