RE: How do you get the default mibs to work when the master agent is run via init_master_agent();

I tried to add init_mib_modules() but I get an undefined reference in
the build process of the subagent. So I think this is the reason why the
tables are not working.

I am able to call:
    init_agent()
    init_snmp()
    init_master_agent()

But not:
    init_mib_modules()

Is there any info on how to compile/build/link net-snmp to work in the
environment where it is called as a master_agent from within a subagent
via init_master_agent(). Where it is not run as snmpd daemon? 
Apparently I am not compiling/linking it correctly.

Most of what I read on the net-snmp web site describes how to make, and
install a net-snmp daemon (snmpd), but I have not been able to locate
the info on how to build it in a Linux environment where it is started
up via init_master_agent.

Any info on how to do this or where this information can be found would
be greatly appreciated. 
thanks

Are these modules actually being registered?
Try turning on debugging, and see if the per-module initialisation code
is being called.

I'm sorry, but that's not really a lot of help.
"tried various things" is so vague as to be useless.

We'd need to know the *exact* initialisation code that you're using.
I'd suggest you start with the core of the snmpd.c main() routine,
namely:

    init_agent()
    init_mib_modules()
    init_snmp()
    init_master_agent()

and work from there.
