Were can I find the check_snmp plugin

[Christy.New at cancer.org]

Please do not apply windows procedures in a unix environment. Work the
problem. Solve it step by step. Pay attention to the exact responses and
the exact commands.HOW AM CAN I TELL IF I AM RUNNING WINDOWS PROCEDURES IN
A LINUX ENVIRONMENT.  THESE WERE (.TAR.GZ)PLUGINS.  CAN YOU EXPLAIN WHY YOU
THOUGHT THIS

 1. Can you run access the router with SNMP at all? Test with snmpwalk.
(Known obstacles: firewalls, community strings ,....)THIS IS GOOD, BECAUSE
I USE SNMP ON MY DEVICES ALREADY FOR OTHER UTILITIES THAT I USE.

 2. Can you run the plugin by hand? Test all the options you want to use
in nagios manualy first. Make sure you test this sucesfully as the user
that the nagios process runs as.  WHEN YOU SAY BY HAND, I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT
YOU MEAN.  I AM NO GOOD WITH COMMAND AND USE THE GNOME FOR MOST OF MY
EDITING.  I DON'T USE THE VI EDITOR MUCH

 3. Now try to build the most simple service definition and try within
Nagios.  MRTG I JUST DISCOVERED I DO NOT USE ON MY DEVICES SO I JUST
REMOVED IT, BUT STILL THE SNMP PLUGINS ARE STILL NOT WORKING AND NAGIOS
GIVES ME A RESPONSE BACK OF "PLUGIN MISSING"

THANKS HUGO APPRIECIATE YOUR GUIDANCE.

Very Respectfully,
Chris
