Because the code is different. Much of the SNMP agent MIB code is very O/S dependent, so it's not uncommon for different architectures to support different MIB objects. In particular, looking at the Host Resources code that you've been asking about (repeatedly!!): $ grep -i aix host/*.c host/hr_swrun.c:#elif defined(aix4) $ grep -i linux host/*.c | wc -l 64 The Linux implementation is *much* more complete than the AIX support. None of the core developers has access to AIX equipment, so we are reliant on other providing suitable code, patches, bug fixes, etc. Without such input from the AIX community, the AIX support will simply not advance. Note that it's quite possible that there are some AIX-related fixes in the project trackers, waiting to be applied. If you can try some of these out, and report back your experiences, that will help in getting these changes included in the main code base. Alternatively, if you can arrange for someone to donate AIX kit to either the Net-SNMP project or (more usefully) the SourceForge compile farm - that might help improve the AIX support as well. Dave PS: Please can you *not* report the same problem several times (in subtly different guises). It just increases the support load, and means we're spending time answering the same questions time and time again, rather than actually improving the code!
