[dnsdist] The lubbly SNMP / Stats etc

[Daniel Oakes]

I'll preface this by that I hate SNMP with a passion - but we here have a PRTG install which at least for the most part takes the pain out of this process.

I'm having issues trying to include the SNMP mib - and the whole agentx process.  The SNMP docs are written by propeller heads, who obviously still like compiling everything.

We just want to monitor some stats out of DNSdist - with powerdns we use an exec to get values out and that works fine.

Our snmpd.conf has two very simple lines, which I think should be enough, but don't seem to work:

mibs +DNSDIST-MIB

master agentx

And we've download the DNSDIST-MIB.txt into the /usr/share/snmp/mibs dir.  When I do an snmptranslate I get nadda...

snmptranslate -m +DNSDIST-MIB -IR latencyAVG100
DNSDIST-MIB::latencyAVG100

Help?  Any pointers?
