Re: Re: Re: multiple set_requests snmp/perl

tommycahir,
Well that's sort of a good sign. It means that there was nothing wrong with your original code and the problem must be elsewhere. I am not sure if $result has any meaningful information but it may be worthwhile to print $result each time through the loop. Additionally, have you checked out the snmpset script that came with Net::SNMP? The only other thing I can suggest is turn the SNMP logging for the server you are setting on way up and tail the log.

Cheers - L~R

tommycahir, Did you verify that the community string you are trying to write to is not read-only? I am not sure what else to tell you since it does not appear to be a code issue but a SNMP configuration problem. Cheers - L~R	[reply]

L~R tried the snmpset commandline tool and it wont allow me set anything but the sysName so it def not the code. i just wondering what would stop you from setting more than one value in the mib???	[reply]
