[mrtg] Re: mrtg on windows polling linux.

[Dean]

While scanning my linux server to build the mrtg.conf file I'm getting
the following errors. Does anyone have any ideas?

SNMPv1_Session (remote host: "204.214.91.111" [204.214.92.111].161)

That is correct....
As I said, SNMP is SNMP no matter what OS it's running on.
So from my windows machine I can walk an SNMP OID on my RedHat boxes,
W2K servers, my Sun boxes, my Cisco routers and my PIX firewall.

So can I use both of these tools to walk both the windows and linux
server?

Thanks for your help Manny.
