SNMP is SNMP no matter what the OS is.... Until you can walk *any* OID on a box you should worry about MRTG. In other words, make sure that SNMP is working on the box before even thinking of MRTG.
How do you do that? Using something other than MRTG to poll or walk an OID on that box. Here is what I use: I use windows, so I downloaded a command utility that includes snmpget.exe and snmpwalk.exe (there are other utilities, but those are the ones that I use the most), I got that tool from here: http://www.wtcs.org/snmp4tpc/redirect.htm The actual tool (win32tools.exe) can be downloaded from here: http://24.86.129.160:8181/webfiles/SNMP++/Win32Tools.exe Another tool for windows that I (and lots of people) like is Getif, which is a very handy GUI tool; get it from here: http://www.wtcs.org/snmp4tpc/getif.htm Until one of those tools can query or walk an SNMP OID on *any* box with SNMP on *any* operating system, then you can use MRTG. Hope that helps. -MannyO -----Original Message----- From: Dean [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, June 24, 2003 9:10 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [mrtg] mrtg on windows polling linux. Hello, I am currently using a windows server to run MRTG. I have been successful at pulling stats from other windows servers but I'm receiving an snmp walk error when I try to pull stats on one of my linux servers. I think I configured the snmpd.conf file correctly however I'm still having difficulty pulling the stats. Can someone point me in the correct direction. Also, if I want to pull processor and memory information do I need to use a tool to walk the linux server.
