I tested snmpwalk and snmptranslate, both worked just fine. The scenario is, HP-UX has its own SNMP daemon, and apparently we don't want to disable it or anything. We have a program native to HP-UX caled naaagt that bridges HP-UX's agent with Net-SNMP. I don't know if that says anything, but I forgot to point it out in an earlier e-mail.

As far as netSnmp.999 not existing, I was under the impression that it wasn't supposed to exist. If you take a quick look at the perl module (http://www.net-snmp.org/tutorial/tutorial-5/toolkit/perl/perl_module.pl) it purposely registers a non-existent OID to add in its own data at that entry. Is that an incorrect assumption?

Hello Daniel,

can you please check whether you're able to access the netSnmp mib at
all? You might do that with the following command (I presume you're
working at your HP-UX machine):

snmpwalk -c public localhost netSnmp

If there is no output at all or if you only get the message "End of MIB"
the reason for your problems with the perl module might be that you're
not allowed to access this mib (improper security settings in your
snmpd.conf file).

The net-snmp modules that implement the netSnmp mib should be included
in the net-snmp daemon by default (I just checked with the HP-UX
versions I build using the dist/nsb-package script that's part of the
net-snmp source tarball).

What I didn't find was that netSnmp.999 oid - neither in those mibs that
come with the net-snmp installation nor in my output walking the netSnmp
mib. Is there anyone who can say more about this oid?

Hope that helps a bit.

Johannes
