I am trying to get SNMP working with IDS 11.70.FC2 with no luck. O/S is RHEL 6 I would like to continue to use net-SNMP so that I can monitor the rest of the server. This part is working fine. I am using net-snmp v5.5-27 I have added “smuxpeer .1.3.6.1.4.1.893” to my snmpd.conf file but an snmpwalk of 1.3.6.1.4.1.893 still produces no output. I have also tried “smuxpeer 0.0” in snmpd.conf Informix MIB files have been copied to /usr/share/snmp/mibs After each config change, snmpd and onsrvapd have been restarted. There are no errors in any of the log files. Now I am totally stuck. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks Neil

If I remember correctly, when I tried to use it years ago (probably version 9.4) that Informix *requires* you to use their SNMP daemon. Seems like a heavy-handed requirement for no stated reason.

Thanks for the response Bob. The "Informix SNMP Subagent Guide" V11.70 is a bit vague about different Master Agents on page 2-7 so I think I am going to resign myself to doing this another way. The plan is to run Net-SNMP as normal and try and run the IDS SNMP on a different port. I will let you know how I get on. Neil
