squid and snmp

[Sebastiaan <S.Breedveld@ITS.TUDelft.NL>]

Hi,

I am trying to monitor squid with mrtg, for which snmp is needed. As far
as I know snmp support is compiled in by default on Debian (I checked the
debian/rules in the sources), but I can't get it to work.

In /etc/squid.conf I have:

acl snmppublic snmp_community public
snmp_access allow snmppublic allowed_hosts
snmp_access allow snmppublic localhost
snmp_incoming_address 0.0.0.0
snmp_outgoing_address 0.0.0.0


which should be enough, according to various documents on the web.
However, when I do a snmp walk, I get this (also according to those
documents):

# /usr/share/doc/libsnmp-session-perl/examples/snmpwalkh.pl public@127.0.0.1 .1.3.6.1.4.1.3495.1.1

Collecting [system]

(and some more).


What am I doing wrong?

Thanks in advance,
Sebastiaan

  NT is the OS of the future. The main engine is the 16-bit Subsystem
  (also called MS-DOS Subsystem). Above that, there is the windoze 95/98
  16-bit Subsystem. Anyone can see that 16+16=32, so windoze NT is a
  *real* 32-bit system.
