Hi, Dave – Thanks for the reply. The OS is Ubuntu 12.04.
I'm not sure I understand what you mean by "vendor-supplied" SNMP; are you referring to something that may have come with the OS distro? Also, I tried running make uninstall, but when it entered the perl subdirectory, I got an error "no rule to make target 'uninstall'. Stop." And the uninstall quit right after that. There's still a bunch of files with "snmp" in their names in /usr. Should I do some more clean-up before proceeding, and if so, what would you recommend? Thanks again.
