Hi,
I'm trying to build NetSNMP on OS X.
Digging through the LIST archives, there seem to be a LOT of problems
getting NetSNMP built & running reliably on OS X. I 've gathered that
whatever fixes there ARE have found their way into the latest 5.4.x TRUNK,
NOT the 5.3.x release(s).
Still, trying to gather up a consistent set of instructions for OS X, for
any SNMP version, from the archives is challenging at best, and has proven
just about impossible for me.
The best remaining option is apparently following the instructions in the
distribution's "README.osX".
So, I'm configuring the build with:
./configure \
--prefix=/usr/local/net-snmp \
--with-defaults \
--enable-shared --disable-static \
--with-openssl=/usr/local/ssl \
--with-libwrap \
--with-default-snmp-version=3 \
--disable-ipv6 \
--without-kmem-usage \
--disable-mini-agent \
--with-perl-modules --disable-embedded-perl \
--with-python-modules \
--without-rpm \
--with-mib-modules="host ucd-snmp/diskio" \
--with-out-mib-modules="mibII/icmp host/hr_swrun"
On completion, this reports:

---------------------------------------------------------
The two "*** MIB Module warning ***" notices are a result of
including/excluding modules as specified in the instructions.
The "requires" in those warnings does not seem to mean OPTIONAL.
Which is it? Are these instructions valid, or not?
If YES, why the warnings?
If NO, what are the correct instructions?
Continuing on with a 'make' step, it, too, fails:
...

make[2]: *** [host/hr_network.lo] Error 1
make[1]: *** [subdirs] Error 1

DOES this software work on OS X? Assuming it does, are there some
instructions to follow?
Thanks,
Harv
