Jan 14 13:37:17 <chrisb> can the snmp kernel module in slugos make the slug accept snmp queries?  i don't see any configuration files installed
Jan 14 13:37:46 <chrisb> is the optware net-snmp package the right way to go to get the box monitored by snmp?
Jan 14 18:13:00 <chrisb> what about snmp support in slugosbe?
Jan 14 18:13:13 <chrisb> the kernel module or net-snmp in optware?
Jan 14 18:13:51 <chrisb> what would it take to compile a webserver like nostromo? 
Jan 14 18:14:52 <scant> mwester: i have a big issue with my DSM-G600 and Slug OS 5.2-alpha, when I use 'vi' to edit a file that has a line with more than 80 characters, 'vi' will either crash with a segmentation fault or insert a line-break when moving the cursor on the line that's more than 80 characters
Jan 14 18:14:55 * chrisb now on day3 of the debian mirror creation on the slug
Jan 14 18:29:30 <mwester> scant:  check the busybox.net bug tracker and commit logs to see if that's a known issue with busybox, and if so what patch will solve it.
Jan 14 18:44:51 <scant> mwester: i was wondering if you experience the same issue?
Jan 14 18:46:31 <mwester> vi is to real text editors as a bootloader is to an operating system.
Jan 14 18:47:16 <mwester> Ideally I never have to use vi at all in order to "opkg install joe" :P 
Jan 14 18:47:46 <mwester> But's that what alpha testing is all about -- to get a wider range of testing than just the developer.
Jan 14 18:49:37 <chrisb> mwester: what about snmp on slug? do you have any experience?
Jan 14 18:50:16 <mwester> chrisb:  nope.
Jan 14 18:50:48 <mwester> nice idea - if it needs special support, or if it's so trivial (config file or two) that we can have snmp support in the base image, I'm all ears.
Jan 14 18:51:35 <chrisb> mwester: ok, i'll try out the optware net-snmp
Jan 14 18:51:41 <chrisb> mwester: and let you know
Jan 14 18:52:12 <mwester> Optware?  Not available in the native feeds, then?
Jan 14 18:52:31 * mwester wonders if it's ever been added to OE
Jan 14 18:53:45 <chrisb> mwester: there is some kind of kernel module in the native feed, but i do not think it is the same thing
Jan 14 18:55:12 <mwester> Ok.  I am an ignoramous when comes to snmp.   It's this magic thing that retreives lots of meaningless numbers that obfuscate the meaningful numbers buried in there that you really want. :D
