This is somewhat of an old entry, but I just figured out the problem and wanted to share my soultion.
It appears that Ubuntu (and other debian based setups) are missing some key Perl modules needed by NMIS. These can easily be downloaded and installed using the CPAN interface. First, run the command: perl -MCPAN -e "shell" This will go through an initial configuration of setting up CPAN including download servers. I chose defaults for pretty much everything. Then install the following modules $cpan> install Time::HiRes $cpan> install Time::ParseDate $cpan> install Statistics::Lite $cpan> install Net::SNPP $cpan> install Net::SMTP $cpan> install Net::DNS # Only required if using DNS lookups for geoplots $cpan> install IPC::Shareable # Only required if multithreading on Unix/Linux. $cpan> install BSD::Resource # Only required if multithreading on Unix/Linux. $cpan> install GD::Graph # Only required for Capacity Planning tool. I beleive you really only need the first 5 modules to get it working. Hope this helps, Grant T.
