I've been trying to install the net:SNMP Perl module and have been having problems. We got Net:SNMP from SunFreeware.com and added that package, then unpacked and tried to install the perl mods for net:SNMP from Sourceforge.com. They both installed ok. However, when running a perl script that calls on it we get the following errors: ________________________________begin error Can't load '/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.0/sun4-solaris/auto/SNMP/SNMP.so' for module SNMP: ld.so.1: /usr/local/bin/perl: fatal: relocation error: file /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.0/sun4-solaris/auto/SNMP/SNMP.so: symbol usmHMACSHA1AuthProtocol: referenced symbol not found at /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.0/sun4-solaris/DynaLoader.pm line 229. at /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.0/SNMP/Info.pm line 14 Compilation failed in require at /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.0/SNMP/Info.pm line 14.

BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at test_snmp_info.pl line 5. end error_____________________ SNMP.so is in that location (../auto/SNMP) however I'm not sure what the relocation error means. Any ideas how to even begin troubleshooting this. I am very versed in installing Solaris packages, but I am new to Perl and was following a co-workers advice on installing Perl modules (he knows a lot about Perl, but not a SyS Admin guru like I am :) ) When we hit this he was out of ideas.
Just to give more information, we were following the readme installation file which has us: cd net-snmp/perl perl Makefile.PL -NET-SNMP-CONFIG=sh ../../net-snmp-config -NET-SNMP-IN-SOURCE=true (as user) make (as user) make install (as root) No errors popped up on these 4 steps. Thanks. And being from California, I like the exercise in creating a California ballot sorter. Maybe one day I can meet Randal and say "Good job!".
