Robert (and all the other core developers): I have worked with the files
./agent/mib_modules.c ./agent/mibgroup/mib_module_inits.h ./agent/snmpd.c to include printf() and DEBUGMSGTL(()) statements, only to find, much to my chagrin, that those changes that are made to the routines should_init() init_mib_modules() do not result in the expected output from the printf() and DEBUGMSGTL(()) statements. Indeed, no such output is generated. Additionally, not being easily disuaded from getting to the bottom of problems, I went so far as to rename the init_mib_modules() routine to init_mib_modules_wrb() and made the corresponding changes to the routine snmpd() as found in the file ./agent/snmpd.c then executed the commands make clean make only to find that a) the daemon was produced, and b) when executed, the output was the following message ./agent/.libs/snmpd: relocation error: ./agent/.libs/snmpd: undefined symbol: init_mib_modules_wrb How can the daemon complete linking, and then upon execution generate the above error? The only change made was to rename the routine. Surely if there is some problem with such a renaming, it would be as a reportable error either during compile time, or during link time. I am exploring this process in order to come to understand why the daemon does not initialise my dot11StationConfigTable (part of the 802.11 MIB), even though it is listed within the configure process, via the --with-mib-modules=dot11/mfd/dot11StationConfigTable specification. Indeed, one of my co-workers suggested the use of the *nm* function, and here is what I get::::: [EMAIL PROTECTED] net-snmp-5.2]# nm ./agent/.libs/snmpd | grep -i -n "init_mib_module" 68: U init_mib_modules_wrb [EMAIL PROTECTED] net-snmp-5.2]# ./agent/.libs/snmpd -Dmib_init -H No log handling enabled - turning on stderr logging mib_init: initializing: usmConf mib_init: initializing: subagent mib_init: initializing: vacm_conf mib_init: initializing: agentx_config ./agent/.libs/snmpd: relocation error: ./agent/.libs/snmpd: undefined symbol: init_mib_modules_wrb [EMAIL PROTECTED] net-snmp-5.2]# So, guys, what is the problem? Why do I get this kind of failure for just changing the name of a routine????? William R.
