try the following. open two shell windows on the same machine - the one you
are trying to use as an agent. start scotty in each.
in the first type:
set s [snmp session -agent {} -port 1601]
$s instance sysName.0 namevar default-value
set namevar first-value
now in the second, type:
set s [snmp session -port 1601]
$s get sysName.0
you should see
{1.3.6.1.2.1.1.5.0 {OCTET STRING} first-value}
if you don't, your scotty is broken. if you see default-value in the
result, there is a problem with binding the instance to the variable.
also try typing in the second window:
$s get sysDescr.0
You should see:
{1.3.6.1.2.1.1.1.0 {OCTET STRING} {scotty agent version 2.1.6
(sun4m-SunOS-4.1.4)}}
If you get something intellible, but notably different, you may somehow be
talking to the wrong agent.
If you get all of these results, then try putting the second session on
whatever machine you are using as the manager. Add "-address <agenthost>" in
the second session to address your agent. You should still be able to get the
results above.
If all of this works, maybe the problem is in your browser, or maybe you are
trying to use the official snmp port (161) on your machine but the system isn't
allowing scotty to bind it. Try repeating the above test on the two machines
without the "-port 1601" argument.
hope this helps/buz
