Hi List,

I'm having trouble converting MIB files to .c and .h files using mib2c.
I'm doing as follows:

$ MIBS="+UCD-DISKIO-MIB" mib2c -c mib2c.conf UCD-DISKIO-MIB

But I get this error:

You didn't give mib2c a valid OID to start with. IE, I could not
find
any information about the mib node "UCD-DISKIO-MIB". This could
be caused..............

Yet, if I do this:

$ MIBS="+UCD-DISKIO-MIB"
$ snmptranslate UCD-DISKIO-MIB::diskIOIndex -On

I get this:
.1.3.6.1.4.1.2021.13.15.1.1.1

So, yes... the MIB is being loaded. I uninstalled all the old net-snmp
RPM's from the system, and compiled net-snmp 5.1.3.1 configured as
follows:

$ ./configure --with-mib-modules=host --with-perl-modules

I also tried configuring net-snmp with --with-mib-modules="host
ucd-snmp/diskio" which compiles UCD-DISKIO-MIB for me. However, I would
like to
know why mib2c is not working for me when I want to convert a MIB file
into a module if I'm doing exactly as the documentation says, even all the
examples work for me, it's simply the mib2c part the one not working.

Thanks,

Try this:
First make sure your mib is in right scope the mib2c can search, the =
default path is /usr/local/share/snmp/mibs/. Then, execute "exports =
MIBS=3DALL".

Subject: Problem with installation (configure error)

Hello,

when I try to run ./configure, I get the following error:

linux:/net-snmp-5.2.1.2 # sh ./configure
: command not found4:
./configure: line 22: syntax error near unexpected token `elif'
./configure: line 22: elif test -n "${BASH_VERSION+set}" && (set -o =
posix)
>/dev/null 2>&1; then

What do I need to do to install the package?

My system is:
SuSE Linux 9.1
gcc 3.3.3
bash 2.05b.0(1)-release
net-snmp-5.2.1.2
I'm logged in as root.

Thanks in advance,

What are those lines in "configure" (around line number 22 and a few=20
lines before) ?

Hi Dave,

Thank you! I got it.

I still think noSuchName is not a suitable error type for this case.

In the SNMP specification documents - RFC 1157 for SNMPv1,
RFC 1905 for SNMPv2c, RFCs 3414 and 3416 for SNMPv3/USM.

With SNMPv1, a read-only community (not user) trying to
SET a value will result in a noSuchName error.
With SNMPv2c (or SNMPv3), a read-only community (or user)
trying to SET a value will result in a noAccess error.

With SNMPv1 and SNMPv2c, a completely unknown community will
be silently dropped, and no response will be returned at all.
With SNMPv3, this will return an authenticationFailure
report.

See the RFCs for the full gory details.

Dave

Most will, but you still have to give it an object name, not the MIB name. If
you want multiple scalars/tables, use a top level object name.
