Ah - that's probably not quite right.
The option "--with-mib-modules" controls what code is compiled into
the agent.   This invocation will cause the build to look for files

    DELL-CMC-MIB.{c,h}

in the 'agent/mibgroup' directory.
That doesn't (of itself) affect the list of MIB files to be loaded by
default.

What you probably want is the configure options

   --with-mibs="+DELL-CMC-MIB"

which *does* add this MIB to the default list.

Hi, Dave -

At _configure_ time??? Pardon my density, but why would I want to change
that at configure time? I thought that was the purpose of the snmp.conf
prop declaration 'mibs +DELL-CMC-MIB'.

Is there a lurker in there that makes one app work properly with the
load-time switch and one app not? I thought every app looked at
snmp.conf?
