[SNMP4J] Create PDU from ByteBuffer

[Norman Elton]

Frank,

Thanks for the tip. It appears that this method requires that I
process and strip off the SNMP version and community string, as well
as the wrapper surrounding the entire SNMP message. Is there a method
someplace that can take care of this for me?

Thanks!

Norman
