Hi,

Not a problem, it did take me quite a while to debug, however it was done with pleasure :)

Reported with Mantis.

I suspect that you system is either running in Safe Mode, or you don't have a few of your paths setup correctly in "Settings->Paths". The path always includes the binary. Otherwise, file_exists would return true.

As far as the snmp host:port and OID issues, definately weird and never seen before. This may be a Solaris build issue. Well, it's good to know anyway.

With regard to Ping, the class call returns either TRUE or FALSE. Therefore, it should not get caught in a loop there. Unfortunately, now I have to go back and look at the code.

For those wondering, I'm still here, but lost in the shadows. Yearning for less bugs. Who want's a Cacti 1.3/2.0? Streams anyone?

I know it should return either TRUE or FALSE, however because on my system the snmpget function was somewhat broken (do to OID not being quoted), it was returning nothing, it was actually halting when it did the snmpget function.

I'd say that you don't need to change anything to the ping class call, it works fine, it was snmpget which made the script stop, just adding quotes should be sufficient.
