Citrix Logged in Users

[s93jeep]

Hello:

I have been using Cacti for 6 year and it is an awesome tool, I have also been using the snmp4ctx but ran in to a snag, it does not work on 64Bit Windows machines.

I emailed the original programmer and she has lost her source code and will not be doing an update.

Does anyone know if there is an up to date snmp.dll and reg key to work with Windows 2008 Server?

1) The standard snmp user count for the OS isn't accurate enough?
2) does citrix install any snmp agent addons for you to query?
3) could always poll for this data via windows performance counters.

The logged users that is part of the Standard Windows Counters does not show the correct number of logged in users for a Citrix server. Never has. The only way to catch those was to use snmp4ctx but that no longer works on a 64Bit OS. I contacted the original writer of the dll and reg key but she has since list her source code and will not be updating the version.

I can not find any additional snmp agent addons that are simple snmp calls.

As for polling the data via windows performance counters I am not that a coder and really rely on those that are. I would love to have that skill like some many on these forums but I am not that kind of admin.

google is a great resources to point you in the right direction.

There is also http://forums.cacti.net/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=25600 once you figure out that portion.

Hello,
this post is old, but i think this information can be useful for others.

snmp4ctx can be used on a windows2008R2 64bits server :

Download snmp4ctx from http://www.wtcs.org/snmp4tpc/snmp4ctx.htm and extract files.
Create a file named snmp4ctx64.reg in the same directory, and copy this code in this file :

Code: Select all

REGEDIT4

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Neocles\SNMP\ExtensionAgents\SNMP4CTX\CurrentVersion]
"Pathname"="%systemroot%\\snmp4ctx.dll"

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\SNMP\Parameters\ExtensionAgents]
"SNMP4CTX"="SOFTWARE\\Neocles\\SNMP\\ExtensionAgents\\SNMP4CTX\\CurrentVersion"

Create a file named install64.cmd in the same directory, and copy this code in this file :

Code: Select all

copy snmp4ctx.dll c:\windows\
regedit /s snmp4ctx64.reg
net stop snmp
net start snmp

Execute install64.cmd .
