CentOS 5 :: Snmpgetnext Not Being Installed With Net-snmp?
Jun 12, 2009
In a nutshell, my situation is that I need snmpgetnext. My understanding is that this should be installed with net-snmp (net-snmp.x86_64 specifically); this is not occuring. I cannot use it as a command, and I have tried quite a few searches (whereis, find / -iname "snmpgetnext", "snmpget*" | grep next, "*next*" | grep snmp, and a host of similar oddities). Can I find snmpgetnext in a yum repository, preferably an official one?
More specifically, I'm using a software package that requires CentOS with kernel 2.6.18-53.somethingorother. This is a separate issue that has been brought up with the vendor. Generally this just means I install CentOS 5.1 and don't do a full upgrade. we are monitoring with Nagios. The Nagios check_snmp plugin won't compile without a valid path to snmpgetnext, which I can't get to install. This is severly hampering my ability to monitor the server.
I am having issues installing nagios-plugins using yum. Been using Suse don't have much experience with CentOS (CentOS release 5.2 (Final), ) Linux hoster 2.6.18-92.1.22.el5 #1 SMP Tue Dec 16 12:03:43 EST 2008 i686 athlon i386 GNU/Linux It says
"Error: Missing Dependency: perl(Net::SNMP) is needed by package nagios-plugins" Whereas net-snmp-perl.i386 is already installed. yum deplist nagios-plugins Loading "fastestmirror" plugin Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile
I am trying to monitor a Centos 5.3 box using SNMP and I am having a lot of trouble getting the data that i need from it. Everytime I try to get information from the UCD-SNMP MIB it returns "End of MIB". It is my understanding that UCD-SNMP is a standard package when Net-SNMP is installed and should always be there. Then why can't I access it? I have tried removing the reinstalling Net-SNMP, but that hasn't worked. My server is update date on all it's patches as well. It is quite old hardware, but I don't believe that should affect SNMP from being gathered. Iptables is down, and I cant' even get it from the local machine.
I have 2 Centos 5.2 install that cant be snmp queried from another machine and I am unsure of what to check next.
To make sure it was not an incorrect iptables rule i temporarily turned off iptabes with the same results. I have checked the hosts file and it is correct on both machines.
i tried to configured snmp configuration for opennms monitoring tool to get disk alert ..when i entered the following command i doesint receive any sysobj id can somebody say how can i get my sysobjid in centos 5.4
I just installed the snmp packages on Centos 5.2, and when i tried to use the snmpwalk command, the data is not showing and i got this error: No more variables left in this MIB View (It is past the end of the MIB tree).
I am trying to put up my own Quake2 server to play with my friends. During this installation process I have encountered rather confusing issue. First I downloaded the Q2 server binaries in RPM package and tried installing it:
I've installed CentOS 5.3 on a machine, and I need a Samba version 3.2 or higher. Since 3.4 is out, I thought I'd grab that. But, "yum list|grep samba" gives me only version 3.0.33. Is there a package of Samba I can grab that will upgrade the 3.0 installation so that I don't have two laying around? If not and I need to compile from source, do you have any suggestions for what arguments I should give configure? I'm not used to Linux coming from the BSD world
I just upgraded by box from Fedora Core 9 to Centos 5.2. Finally!I have a 500GB SATA drive, it's partitioned into three equal size slices, hda1 through 3. The old Fedora was on hda1, I installed the new Centos on hda3. I instructed the installer to write the MBR to /dev/hda, not /dev/hda3. Fdisk says I have sector 0 unused.First, the system wouldn't boot - it just looped through the BIOS, rebooting over and over again. The BIOS sees the disk, but it never loaded Grub. I tried re-running grub-install /dev/hda, and not I get a Grub Error 17 after stage 1.5 loads.
I can boot from rescue OK, the grub.conf man menu.lst look fine, it's pointing to "root (hd0,2)". It's either the BIOS that can't find the MBR, or the MBR can't find Grub.When I looked at the disk with fdisk after the install, hda1 was still marked bootable, hda3 was not, so I swapped bootable flags but that has not made a difference. I also appended the new grub to the old grub thinking I could get the MBR (if it is there) to load the old grub and thence find the new Centos, but that didn't work either.Mobo is an old Shuttle AK35.Any ideas? Did I mess up by not telling the system to put the MBR on /dev/hda3? Is there a way to fix this without reinstalling?
I am having trouble logging into a newly installed CentOS 5.3 box. I can SSH into the machine with root but can not do so with any normal users. I get the error, "connection refused." My firewall is currently turned off.
Such as kiba-dock , SimDock. I can't install these softwares on CentOS 5.3 64, since too many libraries need to be upgraded. The default panel is not so good.
I chose virtualization when installing Centos 5.3. The kernel I got is 2.6.18-128.el5xen My plan is to use KVM, I disable xend service. I don't need a xen enabled kernel. How do I update the kernel to a non xen one?
I am a newbie to CentOS and I am trying to build a webserver for development of my website. I installed CentOS 5.5 with server gui and server and knome settings but cant get the LAMP installed right?
I installed CentOS 5.2 and it was fine. Later I installed some third party applications. Is this possible to create again ISO image from this install? Or alternatively how one rpm package can be added to the CentOS iso cds.
I have a CentOS install but I have problem with repositories(I guess) because I can install almost basic system programs nothing more. How I can check the repositories list with the url of repo? Are they like in Ubuntu or Debian repo universe etc.? For e.g., I'm trying to install lighttpd from source but I can't get dependencies from the repo such as headers and more...
I do yum update it says nothing to update. Coming from the Suse world at 11.2, glibc is already at 2.9, how do I update, there is a lot of dependencies on glibc.
I am running 5.2; have not configured or installed anything special; and need to perform an update and get the dependencies installed, too. What is the best way to do that?
When configure packages bundled with CentOS, I have difficulty locating the installed directories. Anyway to locate those? I first worked on MySQL and now Firefox. They are not at the standard locations (or the ones refered in the manuals).
I made an standard CentOS 5.3 installation and I didn't install any AFS (Andrew File System) rpm or did any AFS configuration or any additional rpm, but I was going to use several ports between 7000-7009 and then realised that those ports were being used by afs3-* services as for instance, asf3-kaserver (kerberos authentication, which I didn't installed either). I wish to disable or uninstall those services but I don't know how and didn't find too much information about it. Why are those services appearing there?
I have successfully installed Centos 5.3 on a Mac Pro which had 1 gig of ram. I upgraded to 5 gigs of ram and the OS cannot see the additional memory. I ran the command free -g and it showed me only 1GB of ram. I pulled the memory and put it in an identical Mac Pro running OSX and it saw the additional memory without any problem, so I know the crucial ram is good. Do anyone know if there is something I need to do in order for Centos to see the additional ram?
To make sure I have the latest packages installed, I no longer install anything from yum, I just compile them from source (or where source isn't available, from .rpm) directly from the application's website.
I was just wondering if there's a best practice about where to put application files that you compile yourself? Most of them seem to default to putting their files in /usr/local. What I currently do is then create symlinks from /usr/sbin, /etc/<appname>/conf, /var/log, /var/run etc. Is this messy? How should I be doing this instead?
