Hi Im not sure what log file this is but im guessing you are using tacacs+ auth on your routers.
If so and if JFFNMS is set to check telnet on your hosts then JFFNMS is telneting to your routers and switches to see if telnet is up on the devices. But Its not actually logging in so the tacacs+ session is timing out which is probably causing the Null Reply An easy way to test this is to tail -f your/log/file and telnetting to one of the devices but then don't login just leave it to time out see if you get a similar error. If this is causing the problem you tel set JFFNMS not to check telnet on the devices -- http://www.joe-ma.co.za Cisco Apple and Unix info and how to site > From: "Coleman, Scott" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Date: Tue, 18 Jul 2006 09:38:10 -0700 > To: <jffnms-users@lists.sourceforge.net> > Subject: [jffnms-users] getting error: Null reply packet, expecting CONTINUE, > and question on speeding up mysql > > Good morning - > > First thank you for such an awesome product and the dedication with which you > maintain it and keep it > > It truly is an awesome effort... > > > > I have two slight problems the first is I am getting reoccurring error message > that fill my logs every hour, they look like this > > <here is a cut away> > > Jul 11 23:02:10 zion tac_plus[22135]: Error 172.16.2.38 tty322: Null reply > packet, expecting CONTINUE > Jul 11 23:02:10 zion tac_plus[22134]: Error 172.16.2.50 tty322: Null reply > packet, expecting CONTINUE > Jul 11 23:02:10 zion tac_plus[22136]: Error 172.16.2.62 tty322: Null reply > packet, expecting CONTINUE > Jul 11 23:02:10 zion tac_plus[22138]: Error 172.16.2.98 tty322: Null reply > packet, expecting CONTINUE > Jul 11 23:02:10 zion tac_plus[22137]: Error 172.16.2.102 tty322: Null reply > packet, expecting CONTINUE > > If I turn off JFFNMS this goes away > > Second are there any pointers on making settings for MySQL run faster with > this application > > It is on MySQL 4.3, apache 1.3+ ssl, and the OS is FreeBSD 5.1 with Linux > binaries installed > > Thanks again > > > > -=S=- > > > > ********************************************************************** > This email and any files transmitted with it are confidential and > intended solely for the use of the individual or entity to whom they > are addressed.
