Well, my first SUMMARY generated more responses than the original request,
which was:
> We have a SparcClassic running Solaris 2.2, and we would like to
> monitor the machine using SNMP. So we need to have an SNMP agent
> program for the Classic. Some vendors supply such an agent for their
> systems, but I can find none for Solaris 2.2. Can anyone help?
In my first SUMMARY I said I had not found a public-domain snmpd agent.
The second round of responses provided several leads. I have not yet
pursued any of these, but I will. Thanks to all.
Several people referred me to the CMU SNMP package, which they believe
includes an snmpd. The package is available for ftp from
lancaster.andrew.cmu.edu in directory pub/snmp-dist.
Yves Morin <Yves.Morin@bcomeau.hydro.qc.ca> pointed me to one he says was
written for 4.3BSD but which could be ported. It's on sifon.cc.mcgill.ca
in /pub/ftp_inc/snmp.
Several people also mentioned 4BSD/ISODE SNMPv2 and an MIT SNMP package.
Archie lists many sources for ISODE. The MIT distribution is available
from thyme.lcs.mit.edu at /pub/snmp.
Several people suggested comp.protocols.snmp and its FAQ as good sources
for information. The FAQ lists a number of other sources.
Mark Richmond, richmond@atria.com, pointed me to noctools. He writes:
Noctools is a catalog of network management tools (both public domain
and vendor). The catalog is maintained online and is available via ftp
or the newsgroups mentioned below. They have a revolving post program
that posts the catalog entries to the newsgroup comp.dcom.noctools.
You can also pick it up via ftp.
The ftp source is
Host: wuarchive.wustl.edu
Username: anonymous
Password: <your e-mail address>
Directory: /doc/noctools
and the newsgroups are:
comp.networks.noctools
.announce Information & Announcements
.submissions submission of new/updated entries
.catalog posting of processed catalog entries
.wanted requests for tools and information
.d discussion about catalog entries
Thanks again to all responders.
