Hey there,

I'm trying to extend net-snmp to return a numeric value so that I can  
graph and alert based upon it.

Now, I started using the exec method and setting the exit status with  
exit $VALUE, however the value in question is many times greater than  
255 and hence this fails.

Using extend, the output is always returned as a string, which means  
my monitoring system (SNMPc) won't let me graph it.

Is there a simple way of returning a numeric value using extend/exec/ 
whatever that will exceed 255?

Thanks for your time.
