Summary: Interface_Scan_Get_Count problem

Initial Comment:
Hi,
We are on a Linux system utilizing UCD 4.2.1 SNMP agent. In the mibII/interfaces.c there
is a problem with the (linux compiled) Interface_Scan_Get_Count() function in that it does
not reinitialize the count.

If I start up the agent, and read the interface list, and add a new interface, a walk of 
the ifDescr will not show the new device. Debugging proves to me that Interface_Scan_Init
found the device and added it to the list.

The problem is in the code below:
static int Interface_Count=0;

static int Interface_Scan_Get_Count (void)
{

        if (!Interface_Count) {
            Interface_Scan_Init();
            while (Interface_Scan_Next(NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL) != 0) {
                Interface_Count++;
            }
        }
        return(Interface_Count);
}

The Interface_Count is only set to zero at initialization. Afterwards, the loop is never
entered.
