That is good to know. I just exported LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib and then put it in /etc/profile which works for me. On this subject, do you think it would be possible to decouple the net-SNMP core and the python bindings at all? The reason I ask is that the preferred python module installation method is to use something called "easy_install" which is somewhat similar to CPAN with Perl. http://peak.telecommunity.com/DevCenter/EasyInstall At that point new eggs can be placed here: http://cheeseshop.python.org/pypi On the testing and code I have written so far with the Python bindings, it just works. The tracebacks are a little vague, but if you use snmpget and multiple values are returned then you will get a strange, vague error. The other weird error issue that I already posted is when I try to get a Mac Address by using something like: var = netsnmp.Varbind('ipNetToMediaPhysAddress') I get back what appears to be an Octal String and not a Hex String and the : is substituted with / I can fix this by using a regular expression and conversion, but it also means I have to convert it to a list as a tuple is immutable, etc. Was there a reason for this? As I prefer the default net-SNMP value which is a Hex String and what most people are used to when they refer to a Mac Address. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.
