Getting a lot closer now! First step download latest Perl:
http://www.cpan.org/src/stable.tar.gz Then run: sh Configure -Dcc=gcc -Dprefix=/usr/local/net-snmp -Uinstallusrbinperl \ -Duseshrplib -Dcf_email=your_email at your_domain \ -Dperladmin=your_email at your_domain -Uuselargefiles -de when finished make sure: grep cppsymbols config.sh and make sure: "-D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64" doesn't appear! After that one can run: make make test (optional) make install /usr/local/net-snmp/bin/perl -V to install Perl. Once Perl has been install one can proceed with the installation process of net-snmp: env PERLPROG=/usr/local/net-snmp/bin/perl ./configure --enable-embedded-perl \ --with-mib-modules=ucd-snmp/lmSensors,ucd-snmp/diskio,smux,mibII/mta_sendmail \ --with-cc=gcc && make && make test && make install the only thing I have found is that I needed to add: /usr/local/bin and /usr/ccs/bin to the su $PATH. This link also helped me out: http://www.mail-archive.com/net-snmp-coders at lists.sourceforge.net/msg11717.html Now.... since I was still in the process of writing this while the code was compiling I thought that it would compile finally which has turned out not to be the case! I think I will attempt to take this thread to the net-snmp guys and try and figure out what's going on there. --K Kaya Saman wrote: > Ok after some digging I managed to find a few things: > > http://www.mail-archive.com/net-snmp-users at > lists.sourceforge.net/msg04843.html > > > http://net-snmp.sourceforge.net/docs/README.solaris.html > > Basically the overall idea here is compile Perl from scratch as Sun's > inbuilt Perl doesn't seem to work! > > Regards, > > Kaya > >
