Hi Paul, I would like to use this influxsnmp plugin. But unable to get it up and running. Does this have anything to do with the initctl in the influxsnmp start scripts ?? I am using CentOS and it uses systemctl for upstart i believe.
As I am pretty new to GO, am not sure what is going wrong. Your help would be highly appreciated. Thanks.
