Topic: How to install SNMP on 5.5

[Jesper]

I would like to monitor my external ethernet port (eth1) to see how much traffic is going through and planned to use mrtg. I followed the instructions from

http://www.e-smith.org/docs/howto/contrib/mrtg-howto.htm

but get these errors:

./create-mrtg: s: command not found
--base: Get Device Info on public@x.x.x.x
SNMP Error:
no response received
SNMPv1_Session (remote host: "x.x.x.x" [x.x.x.x].161)
community: "public"
request ID: 1153840726
PDU bufsize: 8000 bytes
timeout: 2s
retries: 5
backoff: 1)

I assume this is because snmp is not a part of 5.5.

Can anyone tell me how to get hold of a version (rpm) that will install ann also enable support on the ethernet interfaces ?

Thanks,
Jesper

I tried that but go an error:

error: failed dependencies:
        libcrypto.so.1   is needed by ucd-snmp-4.2.3-1.7.0.4

Do you know where to find this lib ?

You don't. That's an indication that you are trying to install an incompatible version. For 5.5, you want the RedHat 7.2 version - ucd-snmp-4.2.5-7.72.0.i386.rpm, I think.

create dynamic link libcrypto.so.1 with libcrypto.so.9.6b

it work for me

You were right. That worked for me. Now I at least have SNMP support on my system. Do you need to do anything special to enable it on the Ethernet adapters ? I still get similar errors even though its obvious that there is now activity.
