Hello, newbie and its the holiiday so be nice or santa will poop in your stocking :-) I am interested in monitoring my freebsd box with MRTG/rrdtool. I have the mrtg/rddtool setup on the box. I can get to my devices w/o any issues and graph. Not sure on the freebsd box tho I have RTFM and other sites. In reading I sounds like I needed ucd-snmp but its not there. So I searched more and found out its now net-snmp So I installed from ports. but its say libnet is wrong version tho its updated. So had to reinstall libnet. So now I have net-snmp. I ran snmpd and it asks a whole lot of questions. I answered them. But i get errors and snmpd doesn' start. mostly says blank lines. Now when Answering the questions I did not answer every question. Like those on snmp3 related. and mabye a few others. Does every thing need to be answered ? And the warning at the end of the install scares me about security and all that. any good net-snmp newbie setup docs ? sites ? any other ways easier to do this ? The mrtg site has nothing related to freebsd. Thanks Mark
