Re: libsmi-0.1.8 FreeBSD port ready!

Marcin> 2. I have added /usr/local/share/snmp/mibs/ to $mibdir, Marcin> to include MIBs from UCD-SNMP port. I'd suggest *NOT* to do this, because many MIBs from the UCD-SNMP project are erroneous and can crash libsmi. Even many IETF standard modules are incorrect. We have put much work in cleaning up these errors in the MIBs that come along with libsmi. So it's better to keep them appart and copy only checked modules over to the mibs/site/ directory or another new directory. Marcin> 3. I have modified configure{.in} to change default Marcin> location of global config file according to $prefix: Ok, I've applied this to the current source tree. -- !!

Hi! Marcin> I am proud to introduce myself as a FreeBSD libsmi Marcin> port maintainer. Fine! There should be nearly no problem at all on FreeBSD.

It works fine on our FreeBSD box. Could you track down, what goes wrong with it? Probably the Makefile `MIBS' variable does not get set correctly?

Porting libsmi to FreeBSD
by Marcin Cieslak 26 Jan '00

26 Jan '00

Hello, I am proud to introduce myself as a FreeBSD libsmi port maintainer. One thing I would like to verify: when I install libsmi with "make install" target it seems that "mibs" directory contains only "iana", "ietf", and so on directories and no MIBs there, although they reside in a source tree. Is it intentional/unfinished? Can I just copy them using a post-install shell script? -- << Marcin Cieslak // saper(a)system.pl >> ----------------------------------------------------------------- SYSTEM Internet Provider http://www.system.pl -- !!

Re: generating CORBA-IDL using smidump
by Frank Strauss 11 Jan '00

Hi! dongquan> I am a graduate student and a new comer of CORBA-base dongquan> network managemnt. I am very interesting in your dongquan> libsmi for compiling SNMP MIB into CORBA-IDL. I dongquan> downloaded a copy and installed it in linux. dongquan> I can compile MIB into CORBA-IDL using smidump utility dongquan> but when I compile the MIB-IDL under omniOrb it fail. dongquan> some include files like ASN1Type.idl can not be found. dongquan> what's wrong with me? I found the examples in test dongquan> directory are very good. How can I do it best? The CORBA-IDL dump modules produce output according to the JIDM specs (a probably obsolete location is http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/8349099/toc.htm). These specifications include the basic IDL definitions you are looking for. Subrata Mazumdar did most of the work on these specifications. May be you find the source files on his home page (http://www.bell-labs.com/user/mazum/). Or may be Juergen Schoenwaelder (Cc), who worked on the libsmi CORBA-IDL dump module, can help. Frank -- !!
