They all do different things: 1) --enable-read-only has been around longer than snmpping.c, and it's clear that the person that Bill didn't test snmpping with all the configure options (not at all surprising; I would have likely missed it too). This is something that we should fix as we move to github: ensure code does compile with various restrictive command line apps. [FYI, --enable-read-only really does remove write related defines from the cpp output code base to ensure there is no way write support can be complied in; it's for high-security or very-low-code-size platforms that really want read-only code; it was also designed to pass the output of cpp to an auditor who would have less "real code" to review and certify] 2) --enable-mini-agent really just drops out most of the default mib modules that we include. IE, it drops the host resources mib and mibII trees for people that want to build an agent with just their enterprise specific things, etc. 3) --enable-minimalist is an interesting one that is also designed for code reduction in that one section of code can declare the need for a function, and if and only if that function is needed by something else will it be included. If you want a really reduced code base for auditing, security, etc, this is the flag that will get you the farthest there. > Is this a known issue? So no. But snmpping shouldn't be complied with --enable-read-only since it requires SET support to operate. It should be excluded in the same way that snmpset is excluded. -- Wes Hardaker Please mail all replies to net-snmp-coders@lists.sourceforge.net ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, Slashdot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot _______________________________________________ Net-snmp-coders mailing list Net-snmp-coders@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/net-snmp-coders
