Hello Larry,
I had the same problem a while back. I do not know if net-snmp or
cygwin is at fault, but this is how I fixed it.
Go to the file w32api/winsock.h and find the line
that looks something like
.....
int PASCAL gethostname(char*,int);
.....
and put an ifdef around it.
#ifndef HAVE_SYS_TYPES_H
int PASCAL gethostname(char*,int);
#endif
It stops gethostname being "picked up" in two separate files.
After that ....... you might bump into another problem.
I was using net-snmp happily for a while, then one day after
a cygwin1.dll update my snmpd did not run anymore. I tracked
it back to a problem with bind and udp port 161, when you ask
for a specific udo port there is a problem. When you ask for
"any port" as snmpget and friends do, there is no problem. The
tcp connection seems fine though - I can used snmpd with a tcp
connection.
I do not know if this has been fixed in the present cygwin release,
I still use an older unsupported one.
cheers
Mark.
