Hi, We have a Solarwinds Orion installed on windows server and we want to monitor HP-UX 11.11 Boxes using solarwinds. By default the version of snmp which is present in hp-ux does not support solarwinds. For that we need to installed net-snmp.I want to retrive data from hp-ux boxes . So in that sense hp-ux become client of solarwinds(windows server).
Now, if you can clarify which will be the best configuration for net-snmp that would be great. I know what is our snmp community string and ip address and all the details. If we will run snmpconf or snmpconf -g basic_setup it is asking so many question. If you guys know that issue please clarify.

Your message to SolarWinds seems to imply that you're talking about how to configure the Net-SNMP agent on HP kit, but your query above is talking about the Net-SNMP "client".

If you're talking about the Net-SNMP agent (i.e. retrieving information from the HP-UX box), then you should be looking at snmpd.conf. But quite honestly, the simplest way to get this working is not to use "snmpconf" at all. Instead, create an snmpd.conf file containing *just* the line rocommunity public You might want to change the community string, or restrict the accessible views once you've got things working. But to start with, I'd begin with this configuration. If you're not talking about retrieving information from the HP-UX box, then you'll need to give some more detail about exactly what you are trying to do.
