Hi again

Still chasing up why my Netview system is missing events due to excessive traps 
coming in. I am trying to get the Netware "gurus" to stop sending me 
non-important traps (120,000+ per day!) but its hard work getting it done as 
there are so many servers out there.

I have a large number of traps defined in my trapd.conf file as "Ignore Events" 
so I don't really know how many of these Netview is having to process and was 
intending to set them to be "Log Only Events" to try and get a handle on this, 
the question that arises is how much processing does Netview have to do for and 
"Ignore Events" trap? Does it pass these by the rules engine etc or are they 
dropped very early in the process?

Will I make my system even worse by logging thes traps?

Cheers - Gavin Newman
