Monitoring Ethereal process via SNMP

Greetings all. I am trying to find out if it's possible to monitor the
Ethereal process/s via SNMP. What I am trying to achieve specifically is
to have a server with Ethereal capturing 24x7 using a FIFO buffer. I
would then use SNMP to tell me that the server was capturing so I
wouldn't need to keep checking (as there are going to be a number of
these servers). Needless to say if anything happened and we needed to
look at the capture, and there wasn't one...... well it doesn't bare
thinking about!!

 

Thanks

 

Tim
