  4. I have Net::SNMP installed but Pandora FMS still asks me for SNMP.pm

I have Net::SNMP installed but Pandora FMS still asks me for SNMP.pm

Answer: net-snmp-perl and Net::SNMP are two different things.

net-snmp-perl is the Perl bindings for the SNMP library at:

 http://net-snmp.sourceforge.net/

which provides an SNMP.pm without the Net:: prefix.

Net::SNMP is a Perl module from

http://search.cpan.org/dist/Net-SNMP/

which provides Net::SNMP (i.e. it would be /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.5/Net/SNMP.pm).

You can find RPM for this package in Dag’s repo:

 http://dag.wieers.com/packages/perl-Net-SNMP/

UPDATE: With Pandora FMS 3.0 this library is not needed anymore.
