Hi Daniel,

 

Firstly thanks for your help.

 

I’ve changed the following in the root path “/root/.bash_profile”

 

PATH=$PATH:$HOME/bin

To

PATH=$PATH:$HOME/bin:/usr/local/sbin

 

I’ve then rebooted the machine

I then ran “/sbin/service snmpd start”

And got the same error “snmpd: service unrecognised”

 

Within the directory /usr/local/sbin there are no files

 

Here’s the output from “make test”

 

[EMAIL PROTECTED] net-snmp-5.3.1]# make test

Subject: Re: Installing net-snmp agent on RHEL4

 

David,

snmpd is part of net-snmp. It will be installed during "make install".

You should also perform a "make test", before the "make install". You can of course run this at anytime after "make".
Do this now to make sure all tests pass.

Make sure /usr/local/sbin is in your shell PATH variable. This is where snmpd will be.
Service(1) is in "/sbin", and is not in the root path by default.
So, "/sbin/service snmpd start" should work.

go to www.net-snmp.org and read all the documentation!

Enjoy!

Hi folks,

 

I’m a total newbie with linux, my background is with Microsoft so yes I can play a great game of patience J.

 

I’m having trouble with installing net-snmp agent onto my RedHat Enterprise Linux 4 server.

 

Here’s what I’ve done…

 

Installed RHEL4 with defaults

Copied “net-snmp-5.3.1.tar.gz” onto the “Desktop” of “Root”

Tar –zxvf net-snmp-5.3.1.tar.gz

./configure

Make

make install (as root)

 

now when I try to configure the agent by typing “snmpconf” I get “bash: snmpconf: command not found”

If I try to run “service snmpd start” I get “snmpd: unrecognised service”

If I do “ps –ef | grep snmp” nothing is returned

In the services window within the gnome gui there is no snmpd service

 

I think snmpd isn’t installed on the box.

Does net-snmp rely on snmpd?

If the answer is yes then how do I install snmpd?

 

I have searched the web for the answer to this for a while now, you folks are my last hope.

 

Thanks a lot.

 

David Hodgson
