[mrtg] Re: Mrtg + Redhat 8 + SNMP

[Helms Corey S SSgt 374 CS/SCBBC]

Redhat 8.0 comes with MRTG and some snmpd.  First, run snmpdconfig.  It will
ask a series of questions about what you want to monitor.  I'd reccomand
just doing a snmp version 2c read only communiy and no other options for
now.

After that has run, copy the resulting snmpd.conf file to /etc/ or
/etc/snmp/.  Start or restart snmpd.  Try 'snmpwalk -c [community] -v 2c [ip
address]'.  If it doesn't spit out a lot of garbage, you did something
wrong.

Once snmp is running properly, run 'cfgmaker [community]@[ip address]
--output=[hostname].cfg'.

I coppied that file to /var/www/html/[hostname] and updated the workdir
statement in the file to reflect the path change.  I then ran indexmaker to
make a nice index.html file.

>From what I can remember, it went pretty smooth.  If you have any probs, let
me know.
