Hi all;
I'm setting up snmpd, I've download the package and installed it ok.
I've setup the configuration files, when i run
/usr/local/etc/rc.d/snmpd start i get
Starting snmpd.
/libexec/ld-elf.so.1: Shared object "libperl.so" not found, required by
"snmpd"
So I do a quick locate and find
netra1# locate libperl.so
/usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.7/mach/CORE/libperl.so
Is that an uncompiled version of libperl.so? Should I add
/usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.7/mach/CORE to my path?
Or is it something else completely?
It's because the current version of perl in the ports tree is 5.8.8
-- when the net-snmpd package was compiled it was linked against a later
version. You can probably see this by examining the output of:
% ldd /usr/local/sbin/snmpd
The fix is either:
upgrade perl (recommended, as there's a security advisory against
older versions of perl:
http://www.vuxml.org/freebsd/5b47c279-8cb5-11dc-8878-0016179b2dd5.html
)
or:
compile the net-mgmt/net-snmpd port from sources
Cheers,
Matthew
