IOG + SNMP Error

[hornet_x]

Ok i'am all kinda new to this so maybe i'am missing something very simple. But i been trying to run IOG, http://www.dynw.com/iog/ on my gateway to monitor data usage on both the internal eth0 and external eth1 cards.

When it runs, it returns the following error: -

SNMP Error: no response received
SNMPv1_Session (remote host: "127.0.0.1" [127.0.0.1].161)
community: "public"
request ID: -1231765408
PDU bufsize: 8000 bytes
timeout: 2s
retries: 5
backoff: 1)

My iog.cfg looks like this : -

[bing:127.0.0.1ublic:sysUpTime.0:/var/www/html/iog]
Gateway-internal-ethernet:127.0.0.1ublic:ifInOctets.2:ifOutOctets.2:/var/www/html/iog
Gateway-external-ethernet:127.0.0.1ublic:ifInOctets.3:ifOutOctets.3:/var/www/html/iog

i'am pretty sure i got the ifInOctets/IfOutOctets right, so i not sure where i'am going wrong ??

Ok, so did you install SNMP support as well?
If not, you should take a look at NET-SNMP and install that.
Which distro do you use? Or are you comfortable with Source-Tar-Ball?
Then you should be able to download it from NET-SNMP web page, make sure that you read the configuration instructions and fire up the snmp Server/deamon as well

thanx for the help swemic.
I ended up working out the problem, first i installed NET-SNMP and all it's packages, but i was still receiving the same problem.

Then i edited the /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf file to read

rocommunity public 127.0.0.1

and all seemed to work fine when i added in the 127.0.0.1.
