Description:
------------
When running making specific SNMP get/walks against Windows 2003 or Windows XP the following has been seen to occur

1.  Sometimes the SNMP walk against .1.3.6.1.2.1.25.2.3 the request times out.  If I use GetIf to walk the OID the results are displayed, but PHP fails randomly

2.  When viewing .1.3.6.1.2.1.25.4.2.1.4 with GetIf the file paths/names are displayed in full, but when I do a SNMP walk the output is truncated.




Reproduce code:
---------------
The code can be downloaded from  http://sourceforge.net/users/lsms-mrtg/

The example windows code is in the package.

Example of the truncated output

<?php
print_R(snmpwalk("127.0.0.1","public", ".1.3.6.1.2.1.25.4.2.1.4"));

?>

Expected result:
----------------
The full program paths displayed, where appropriate.


Actual result:
--------------

I have upgraded to the Windows CVS snapshot, but I am still getting truncated output.

?php
print_R(snmpwalk("192.168.253.10","public", ".1.3.6.1.2.1.25.4.2.1.4"));
?>

gives me:

I have the same problem with php 4.3.10.
It looks that problem is related to number of backslashes "\". It looks like inside conversion unwind \ into \\ not changing size of string array. During return conversion all \\ are winded into \ but trailing chars are lost.

Do you happen to have any of the magic_quotes_* ini settings 'On' when this happens?
 [2005-11-03 13:18 UTC] nospam-php at homeuseonly dot co dot uk 
I have tried changing the magic_ options.  it made no differance.

They were at the default setting.

Please try using this CVS snapshot:

  http://snaps.php.net/php5.1-latest.tar.gz
 
For Windows:

Let's hope i'll wake up the bug ...
Havin the same problem with the apache/php couple running on windows, and querying XP clients, latest snmp module installed with php 5.1.1

The double backslash problem seems to appear only on particular mibs like host.hrSWRun.hrSWRunTable.hrSWRunEntry.hrSWRunPath

A little testing :

Running a linux snmpwalk (no php) to scan on a xp box gives :
HOST-RESOURCES-MIB::hrSWRunPath.120 = STRING: "C:\\WINDOWS\\System32\\"


using windows getif software on the same mib :
host.hrSWRun.hrSWRunTable.hrSWRunEntry.hrSWRunPath.120 : C:\Windows\System32\

Now the query result from php :
["host.hrSWRun.hrSWRunTable.hrSWRunEntry.hrSWRunPath.120"]=>  string(22) ""C:\\WINDOWS\\System3""

I'd say : as php is using net-snmp (am i wrong ?), it gets the \\ result from it (as far as i know getif doesn't use net-snmp and gets a different result, that's why i think so). But PHP itself did not resize the variable that holds the returned value, and that would be why you lose 1 caracter per backslash

I am having the same problem, PHP version 5.2.3 on windows XP and Windows 2003.

I have an SNMP variable (a string) that contains a path and filename.

Using snmpset() to set a string to "A\B\C\D" works, but when retrieving the same value with snmpget() you get "A\\B\\C".

I think the stringlength is calculated on A\B\C\D (which is 7 chars), and then the string is returned with backslashes escaped. The returned string is also 7 chars, but because of the escaped backslashes the last characters fall off.
