{bb} SNMP - a little off-topic

[Jerry Shenk <jas@dect.com>]

This is a little off-topic....I'm not sure how to get started handling SNMP 
traps without something like OpenView or some other high-dollar management 
suite.  I know that on my linux box, I can run snmptrapd and get traps 
displayed on the screen when they are sent their from a machine that's set 
up to sent traps there.

Now what do I do?  There has got to be something out there that will capture 
these traps and do something inteligent with them.  I'm sure it just takes a 
script or some little daemon or something stupid but I can't get started.
