I stumbled across that as well. Now I know (from 3Com manuals :-) that the "SNMP community" _is_ the SNMP password. Sometimes there are different one for Read and for Read/Write access. Pretty basic stuff, really. I've never read a book on SNMP yet so that's my fault. BTW, I won't leave the community setting at "public", the default.
