List, I have a private MIB for a custom hardware platform that I need to include in an snmp agent on my Woody Debian/Linux OS. I have been reading up on using mib2c to create a .h and .c file. Then compiling this output into the snmpd agent. My goal is to have a local snmpd_xxx.custom.i386.deb package that I can include in a production system without needing to carry around the snmpd development environment.
What I really would like to know is- 1- Is there already a FAQ on the Debian way to extend snmpd? If not, 2- At what level should I capture my changes? A- Capture my PRIVATE-MIB.txt into a custom-source.deb group. B- Capture my .h & .c files into a custom-source.deb group. C- Capture my snmpd into a custom-bin.deb file. 3- What is the Debian way to move through the steps listed above? A- Where should I locate the MIB? B- What snmp-dev packages do I need? C- How do I repackage this into a binary .deb? 4- Am I missing anything? (Like an easier way to do this thing?) Any answers of RTFM will be gladly accepted as long as they come with a reference to the location of the FM :-) -- Bill "Do or do not. There is no try."
