RE: Monitor using !=OID

1 step forward and 1 step back!

Having compiled in the disman/event module I get a new error about the
agentSecName token which I didn't get before:

D:\netSNMPMisc>snmpd -f -Ddisman:event:conf
No log handling enabled - turning on stderr logging
registered debug token disman:event:conf, 1
disman:event:conf: Parsing disman monitor config (-r 10 -e
scisysNotification -o scisysString "Generate scisysNotification"
scisysInteger == 2)
disman:event:conf: _BGenerate scisysNotification: Bool (scisysInteger,
2, 2)
d:/netSNMP/etc/snmp/snmpd.conf: line 21: Error: You must specify a

NET-SNMP version 5.3.1

My snmpd.conf file is:

# Community settings
rocommunity public
rwcommunity private

# User settings - required for sending traps via monitors 
createUser myuser MD5 mypassword DES myotherpassword
rouser myuser

# Table rows
add_row scisysTable 1 "Test1a" "Test1b"
add_row scisysTable 2 "Test2a" "Test2b"
add_row scisysTable 3 "Test3a" "Test3b"

# Trap settings
trapcommunity trap
trap2sink  localhost

# Monitors
iquerySecName myuser
agentSecName myuser
monitor -r 10 -e scisysNotification -o scisysString "Generate
scisysNotification" scisysInteger == 2

Any ideas???
Thanks, Emlyn

Hmmm....
  I'd expect to see a bit more than that.  Something of the form
"Parsing disman monitor config (....)", at the very least.

<tap, tap, tap>

Aha!
You're using the older Event MIB implementation.
No - that code does *not* support the !=OID test.

You'll need to recompile the agent to use the newer
'disman/event' module, rather than the 'disman/event-mib'
(or 'disman/old-event-mib') module.

I'm a little surprised, since I thought the newer version
was the default for the 5.3.x line.   But the error message
above is definitely coming from the older code.
