I do not use the check_snmp plugin, I use Patrick proy's snmp plugins. I misunderstood the requirements of the check_snmp plugin. With patrick's plugins they only require the perl Net-snmp portion, which is why I am using the CPAN version! -----Original Message----- From: Andreas Ericsson [mailto:<a href="mailto:ae@op5.se">ae@op5.se</a>] Sent: Monday, October 15, 2007 1:46 PM To: Valdinger, Stephen (DOV, MSX) Cc: Joel Roberts; <a href="mailto:nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net"> nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net</a> Subject: Re: [Nagios-users] One more try on Debian Etch Valdinger, Stephen (DOV, MSX) wrote: > Ubuntu is based on debian, and I was able to compile net-snmp from > source successfully on the server that I have Nagios running on.

That will install perl-Net-SNMP (or some such), which is only the perl-cruft into the net-snmp package. check_snmp is written in C, so what you do with CPAN will have absolutely zero impact on how it works. -- Andreas Ericsson <a href="mailto:andreas.ericsson@op5.se">andreas.ericsson@op5.se</a> OP5 AB <a href="http://www.op5.se">www.op5.se</a> Tel: +46 8-230225 Fax: +46 8-230231 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
