Qmail Connections

Post by bilco105 »

Hello,

I am trying to follow the how-to found here; http://wotsit.thingy.com/haj/cacti/cacti-qmail.html, however, when trying to run the poller, i'm getting back
Result from SNMP not valid. Partial Result: No Such Object avail
.

My snmp config is as follows;

# Access Control
rocommunity xxx xxxxxx
syslocation xxxx
syscontact xxxx

createUser xxxx MD5 xxxx DES
group groupv3 usm xxxx
view all included .iso 80
access groupv3 "" any auth exact all all all

disk /
disk /home
disk /var
disk /usr

# qMail MRTG Permissions
extend qmail-message-status /usr/local/bin/qmailmrtg7 s /var/log/qmail
extend qmail-bytes-transfer /usr/local/bin/qmailmrtg7 b /var/log/qmail
extend qmail-smtp-concurrency /usr/local/bin/qmailmrtg7 t /var/log/smtpd
extend qmail-smtp-sessions /usr/local/bin/qmailmrtg7 a /var/log/smtpd
extend qmail-pop3-concurrency /usr/local/bin/qmailmrtg7 t /var/log/pop3d
extend qmail-pop3-sessions /usr/local/bin/qmailmrtg7 a /var/log/pop3d
extend qmail-queue /usr/local/bin/qmailmrtg7 q /var/qmail/queue
extend qmail-messages /usr/local/bin/qmailmrtg7 m /var/log/qmail
extend qmail-concurrency /usr/local/bin/qmailmrtg7 c /var/log/qmail
.

The OID I am running is
.1.3.6.1.4.1.8072.1.3.2.4.1.2.22.113.109.97.105.108.45.115.109.116.112.45.99.111.110.99.117.114.114.101.110.99.121.1
Any ideas? - Note I'm using snmp3 and its authorizing me correctly, as I can grab the cpu load etc.

One thing I noticed is that these use MIBS, cacti uses OIDS correct?.

How exactly would I convert these?

Hmm, use snmptranslate may help???
Easy approach: simply walk the MIB starting at the "base value" e.g. the vendor's id and watch out for your value

How would I use snmptranslate? - or how would I do the walk through?

Not a net-snmp forum here. Please try reading

Code: Select all

man snmptranslate
Should be enough for a start.
The snmpwalk, when "nothing" is known, may simply be executed as

Code: Select all

snmpwalk -c <your community string> -v 1 <your target host>
But this may produce lots of output. Please do not use this on a production system. Sometimes, this will cause the target to use "very much cpu"
