Hey,

I've been muddling my way through getting the SNMP working with Mon, and 
I am happy to report that I have had more trouble with finding the right 
MIBS than I have with getting MON to work with them.  Good job!

Some thoughts after going through this process.  (I am running CVS from 
last week sometime).  This is all regarding snmpvar.monitor.

* The contrib directory has up to 1.4 in it, but Mon comes with 1.6. 
Should something be noted in the contrib area that its being maintained 
in the main distribution?

* The readme for it refers to having UCD SNMP installed.  I found that 
in late 2000 it changed its name to NET-SNMP.  Still works fine, but its 
easier to find in package management than UCD SNMP.  Should it be changed?

* The readme also instructs you to copy snmpvar.def, snmpvar.cf to your 
mon etc directory.  These are not in the main mon package.  I found them 
in the contrib tgz for the last snmpvar and used those.  They worked 
fine, but the directions should probably be updated or the files included.

* A fantastic resource for finding mibs is mibdepot.com - been 
incredibly useful for me - not sure if that is worth including.


Anyway, I would be more than happy to put it all together and send 
someone updates they could drop into cvs.  I'd love to contribute 
something back to the project.

Bill
