[rrd-users] New Bee to install remstats

Hi Fellows,

I am just starting to install remstats and on the install it says "Build and
install the software" Under pre-req it tells to have RRD, Time and snmp.
I am confused how can I install the software's and what modules to check for
Perl. I downloaded and installed the latest perl. I am running Solaris 2.7
on Sparc machine.
Any idea on how can I install the softwares?

Thanks.

Aamir

I wrote a perl script to query the graphs over snmp, net-snmp allows
scripts to be run, and doesn't run it more often then every 30 seconds
even if you query it over and over.

$ snmpget NAMESERVER SNMP_COMMUNITY
enterprises.ucdavis.extTable.extEntry.extOutput.2
enterprises.ucdavis.extTable.extEntry.extOutput.2 = 60146054 7198491
10306427 11192315 281 1878 13503 408 4877 88864234

See what the graphs look like at http://www.campin.net/DNS/ (bottom).

I've never documented it or released the code (I'd have to ask my
employer for permission), but if people would like me to see if I can do
it, I will check into it.

OBTW, there's huge problems with SNMP implementations right now, you
really need packet filter protection if you're using SNMP.
