Re: {bb} bb-combo.sh question

[Butch Deal <butch@BlackMagic.com>]

I had a similar problem with this.  I found that some how the combo messages
were getting truncated even though they were well below MAXLINE, at about 
1/4 of MAXLINE.  One solution was to turn off combo messages.
The other was to recompile bbd on the server (not needed on clients) with
MAXLINE X 4.  
I know this is not just a problem with bb-xsnmp.pl as a script on our print 
servers (bb-lpc.sh) was doing the same thing.  It also worked with combo 
messages off.
I am running bb1.9e and bbgen 3.2, the issue started with the upgrade to
bb1.9e.
