Compiling +------------ + +The following procedure has been proven to successfully compile net-snmp +version 5.2.2 and later on Tru64 Unix 5.1B (Alpha EV5.6) using the Compaq C 6.5 +compiler: + + ./configure --disable-embedded-perl + make + su - + make install + +A recent GNU C compiler (gcc) will probably work, too. + +Please note that the "host" module doesn't compile on Tru64, so you *cannot* +run configure with "--with-mib-modules=host". + +2. Embedded Perl +---------------- + +The Perl package (5.00503) shipped with Tru64 Unix 5.1 isn't complete enough +to allow to build net-snmp with embedded Perl support. If you need embedded +Perl support, do your own Perl installation first. + +3. IPv6 +------- + +Starting with net-snmp 5.4 you can enable the UDPIPv6 and TCPIPv6 transports +on Tru64 Unix 5.1: + + ./configure --enable-ipv6 + +There's no support for the IPv6 MIBs, though. + + +4. Known problems +----------------- + +"make test" is known to report the following failure: + + 59: testing full snmpwalk (SNMPv2c) against agent (may take time)... FAIL + +so it's obvious that there are still problems with some MIB modules on Tru64. +If you have ideas how to fix them, please let us know! + + +5. Feedback +----------- + +Please also see README and PORTING. + +If you have questions, additional insights or (even better) patches regarding +net-snmp on Tru64 Unix, please refer to the net-snmp mailing lists (see +http://www.net-snmp.org/lists). |
