Hi, There is no documentation in the source code about getting lm_sensors working with SNMP or anywhere on the lmsensors website. why is it a black art & not documented anywhere? This is a serious ommission, surely SNMP monitoring is important to your project. The first link I can find which gives any real info on SNMP with lmsensors is http://people.redhat.com/harald/snmp-lmsensors/HOWTO-SENSORS-SNMPD.html & this document is dated from 2000. The following more recent link has some info on snmp with lmsensors with pretty gui pictures included http://forums.cacti.net/viewtopic.php?t=11590 But there is no info whatsoever on the lmsensors website about getting snmp going. A colleague at work did the following, I believe his instructions are incomplete as I can't see how the snmp agent is registered at the .1.3.6.1.4.1.2021.13.16 OID address > > /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf > >a line like > > # lmSensors > view systemview included .1.3.6.1.4.1.2021.13.16 > >and restart snmpd to allow you access to this oid from the localhost. > > $ snmpwalk -v 2c -c public -m ALL localhost lmSensors > >should then start saying something. My example above had udp:16000 instead of >localhost as I had started a 2nd sndmp server on another port to test with. Any help would be greatly appreciated & whoever does your documentation should document this stuff. Thanks, D.J. Barrow D.J.
