    Besides crashing the device, what's the best way to test for the SNMP
    vulnerability? I've got some hardware out there (Savin printers) that are
    leased (and thus, I have no admin access to them!), and have SNMP on by
    default. I can test against similar hardware here in the offices, but I'd
    rather not crash the accounting / office people's favorite copier / printer
    ;-) I've seen three separate lists of hardware that is vulnerable, but none
    of them look very complete.

    (I know, I know - it's a bloody printer. Big deal if it crashes, right?
    Well, I'll get tired of listenin' to people whine if it's down for even 30
    seconds. Plus I figure it might be nice information to pass on if there's a
    "friendly" way to determine vulnerability.)

    J R Sickmon,
    Creek Electric, Inc.

    (Or whoever I am at this hour...)
