Everything you're saying sounds *really* familiar to me. I've written a utility that runs against routers using net::snmp. The script that is in the code section of the website isnt the most up to date, so I've gone through a few revisions since I posted. The most current one is here. Not sure if it could be of any insight, but I would imagine that I've faced some of your hurdles as well.

I think I have a bit clearer view of what you're doing now with the loop. Does it just fail for this one remote node? And is the failure the result of the script not being able to resolve the node name to an ip address or is it a timeout general?
