Paul, are you talking about alternative option or this is some thing else 
related to another problem other than what I mentioned. We are currently 
changing the IP address of the NetView master and I guess I mixed the original 
question with what issue I have

Regards!

Hany,
If you are changing the address of the NetView server and have 
configured all your snmp agents to only allow access from the NetView machine, 
then yes you will need to do that if you want NetView to be able to communicate 
with the snmp agent. What I was saying is that you can create a seedfile for 
discovery based on the current netview database.
