Scotty discards packets that seem to be broken or not authentic.
However, there might be bugs in the trap handling code that did not
show up yet. You should turn on the debugging mode using the
`snmp watch on' command. Scotty should print the hex dump of the SNMP
trap packet. If Scotty does not print the hex dump, it is very likely
that you have problems running the straps daemon or something like this.
If you are able to get the hex dump of the packet (and it is ok for you
to give it away), just send it to me and I will take a look at it.
