Thanks Bill, will investigate this.

 

Do you know of any example shared objects which use this approach?

 

I’m very new to the net-snmp API, so I’m sort of still finding my feet.

 

Regards,

 

Tim

Tim,

 

Since the configuration file is read and processed line-by-line, you should be 
able to use, e.g., netsnmp_ds_register_config(), register_config_handler(), or 
other config file primitives in your module_init() function, and they will take 
affect for lines after the dlmod configuration line.

Hi,

Apologies for cross posting:

I'm writing a c shared object which will connect to a proprietary server via
telnet and read back performance and status counters.

I don't want to hardcode the connection details such as IP address, port
number and password for the proprietary server into my shared object.

What I would like to do is have the shared object read the information from
the snmpd.conf file or similar location.

Is it possible to add custom settings to the snmpd.conf file which can then
be read by a shared object?

Are there help functions in the snmpd library for doing this in an efficient
way?

Thanks,

Tim
