If it is anything like Compaq's Inside Manager, you should only need to
set the SNMP community string in the FreeBSD SMNP Deamon.  How this is
done I am not sure.  There should be a way for you to set the read only
and full controll community strings.  Then just add the server like you
would any other server in Open View.
