Re: Cacti on CentOS 7

I found part of my problem.  The cacti user account had an incorrect home
directory. I had originally installed the RPM,but removed it once I
realized the RPM dumps files all over the place.  I didn't catch the cacti
user had been created by the RPM and set the home directory to
/usr/share/cacti.  Now that works, and I'm getting localhost data graphed.
However, I can't get the one switch I've added to cacti to graph. I've
added SNMP to firewalld do to pass the data, Cacti can see the Switch (it's
a Cisco Catalyst) and the interfaces on it, but I'm not getting any graphs.


It's been a while since I've messed with snmp, so where do I start?
