Sorry for the delay in getting back to you on this.

It is not suitable for implementing a MIB. As I explained to Mike, the purpose of this file is to act as a design template when crafting a new table helper. It's aimed at internal Net-SNMP coding, not end-programmers like yourself. Forget about this helper - it's a complete red herring. > My goal is very simple. > I want to code a subagent to register for a mib table and be able to > handle the get, getnext, set for the rows and columns in the table > because the data is in the subagent not the master agent.

Most of the table helpers will automatically convert GETNEXT requests into the appropriate GET request internally, so the MIB-specific table handler would never actually see a GETNEXT request. > Meaning I can do a get on all the rows and the columns in the table, > which would possibly indicate that I created the table ok and added the > rows correctly.

I'll try to have a proper look at this, and see if I can spot what is going wrong. > So I am now using: > REGISTER_MIB(...) > To handle get,get next, and set. This works ok. > Is this the recommended approach instead of using the helpers? No. The REGISTER_MIB approach is the old-style code. We are moving away from this towards helper-based MIB modules. Let us have a look at your current code, and we'll take it from there.
