snmpwalk? (related to hplip)

[Neal Becker]

/usr/share/doc/hplip-2.7.7/troubleshooting/network.html says to test using
snmpwalk.  I can't find this on F8.

yum provides snmpwalk
...
No Matches found

Any hints?  Or, better still, any hint why hplip doesn't find my ethernet
printer? (Yes, the printer works fine, and I can print to it).

Do note, however, that there is no Fedora 8 repo set up yet at OpenNMS.

No, I was correcting myself; I incorrectly thought that an F8-capable OpenNMS 
repo was out there, and rather than having the incorrect information in the 
archives, replied to my own message to correct the misinformation.  The 
OpenNMS repos include up through F7.  And even though that wasn't on-topic 
for the thread, I said it, it needed correcting, and I did so. And for this 
reply I've even changed the Subject:, and trimmed my .sig to two lines... :-)

I think your mailer lost track of subject/thread here.

Coffee?  At 10PM?

Oh, you're in Taipei!  UTC+0800... that explains it.

Yeah, I got to play around with snmpwalk while troubleshooting why OpenNMS 
wasn't picking up the interfaces on a Cisco Catalys 5500 here.  Turned out it 
was a timeout issue; the Cat5500 simply sent more data (all 13 slots are 
filled, so there's lots of interfaces!) than OpenNMS could handle in the time 
allotted; so I set up the timeout, and the discovery finished properly, 
giving me the interfaces.  OpenNMS is a real jewel!  The current unstable 
release (1.3.9) is available in a yum repository.  While it does need a Sun 
Java on CentOS 5 (I haven't tried on a F8 install, simply because I don't run 
Fedora servers), it works marvelously.  Once you get the repos set up 
properly, yum install opennms pulls in everything you need, and you run a 
script, and there you are!

That's because my copy/paste was truncated.  :-(  Lamar got it right,
net-snmp-utils.  Must have coffee....  Sorry...

yum install net-snmp-utils 

should do grab it for you.

It should be in "net-snmp".
