FW: [netsaint] check_snmp errors with solaris 8/sparc - No data recieved from host

[Michael O'Dea]

eek! 

I realized that I pasted a bunch of stuff wrong after I emailed it! So much for attention to detail :(

Here is how it *should* look: (and I am still getting the same error)

bash-2.05$ id
uid=6667(nagios) gid=200(upoc)

here I run the plugin:

bash-2.05$ /opt/nagios/libexec/check_snmp  10.10.6.81 -C test123 -o system.sysName.0
SNMP problem - No data recieved from host
CMD: /usr/local/bin/snmpget -m ALL -v 1 -c test123 10.10.6.81:161  system.sysName.0
bash-2.05$

It reports 'snmp problem' and gives me the cmdline, which I run:

bash-2.05$ /usr/local/bin/snmpget -m ALL -v 1 -c test123 10.10.6.81:161  system.sysName.0
system.sysName.0 = "message1"
bash-2.05$ 

It works with the actual snmpget... but check_snmp (which calls snmpget?) seems to fail. 

I get the same error with snmpget from UCD-snmp version: 4.1.2 & UCD-snmp version: 4.2.6 on this solaris 8/sparc system.

I also tried the suggested change in utils.c & recompile - it had no change.

Thanks for getting back to me

First, it appears that you're testing the command under root.  When in
doubt, test it under user nagios.  (I don't think it would make a difference
in this case, but it's all about eliminating possibilities, right?)

Second, it appears that there are 3 different invocations of the command,
and none of them match.  You have (in order shown in your example):

1) libexec/check_snmp 10.0.0.5 -C test123 -o system.susName.0
2) /usr/local/bin/snmpget -m ALL -v 1 10.10.6.81 1luvUp0C system.susName.0
3) /usr/local/bin/snmpget -m ALL -v 1 10.0.0.5 test123 system.sysName.0
system.sysName.0 = "message1"

As a result, I'm puzzling over the following:

- why do #1 and #2 have different IP addresses?
- why are the arguments in #2 and #3 different?
- what object is "system.susName.0"?  did you mean "system.sysName.0"?

They're just all... different.  See if you can get some incantation of the
check_snmp command to result in kicking out the correct CMD (which would
mirror the invocation of snmpget).

Try something along the lines of (ie, cut/paste):

   libexec/check_snmp -H 10.0.0.5 -C test123 -o system.sysName.0

HTH.
