What about modifying Cistron to use Telnet|sho ses (ala pmwho) instead?
The performance difference between that and SNMP cannot be too great. The
reason I am asking is because we have a combination of PM's and Total
Controls, and the TC doesn't support Livingston-style SNMP. So would have
to hack it to pmwho-poll it (works since it uses ComOS).

Has anyone done this yet, successfully? (combination of PMs and TCs)
