Hmm.  TEC does sound like a good place to do that, since it appears to
have a primitive for this sort of filter.  Unfortunatley with our
organizaton, I don't have diddling priviledges with TEC--but I can
certainly harass those who do.  :-)
Bummer that NetView can't do it directly, though.  We like to keep as
many things out of the ole TEC cache as possible and filter locally.
Best Regards,
