	* improved AgentX subagent handling
	* many, many bugfixes in plugged memory leaks
	* prevent DoS attacks from authenticated users

Net-SNMP contains various tools relating to the Simple Network Management
Protocol including:
* an extensible agent
* an SNMP library
* tools to request or set information from SNMP agents
* tools to generate and handle SNMP traps
* a version of the unix 'netstat' command using SNMP
This package is originally based on the Carnegie Mellon University
SNMP implementation (version 2.1.2.1), but has developed significantly
since then.
