net-snmp package problem


After installing ixNet-SNMP A.07.00-5.3.1.002 on a hp9000 hp-ux 11.11 system I can't get snmpd to start it fails while it can not link to libipv6.sl. Searching for this library I found it in the package TOUR. Do I really need this package or is the library also provided by another package.
I do not want to run ipv6 for now so I only need it to get snmpd running.

hints appreciated.

Re: net-snmp package problem

You are not alone.

I just have the same problem trying to use net-snmp.

I also don't want to install TOUR.

Have you found an other solution?

I am still searching.

subquestion: If there is no other solution, what's the impact of installing TOUR?

All you need is Transport Optional Upgrade Release (TOUR) 3.1 package which you can download it at:
http://h20293.www2.hp.com/cgi-bin/swdepot_parser.cgi/cgi/displayProductInfo.pl?productNumber=TOUR

This from my HP box.
Before installation:
#/opt/iexpress/net-snmp/sbin/snmpd -c /opt/iexpress/net-snmp/etc/snmpd.conf -p /var/run/snmpd.pid
/usr/lib/dld.sl: Can't find path for shared library: libipv6.sl
/usr/lib/dld.sl: No such file or directory

# ls -l /usr/lib/libipv6.sl
/usr/lib/libipv6.sl not found

After installation:
# ls -l /usr/lib/libipv6.sl
lrwxr-xr-x 1 bin bin 18 Jan 31 17:46 /usr/lib/libipv6.sl -> /usr/lib/libipv6.1
# ls -l /usr/lib/libipv6.1
-r-xr-xr-x 1 bin bin 20480 May 12 2006 /usr/lib/libipv6.1

# /opt/iexpress/net-snmp/sbin/snmpd -c /opt/iexpress/net-snmp/etc/snmpd.conf -p /var/run/snmpd.pid

# ps -ef | grep snmp | grep -v grep
root 2363 1 0 17:58:51 ? 0:00 /opt/iexpress/net-snmp/sbin/snmpd -c /opt/iexpress/net-snmp/etc

Hope this help.
