I did not change absolutely *anything* in ipSystemStatsInOctets, icmpStatsInMsgs and ipNetToPhysicalAddress in new Net-SNMP. Isn't is just another timing issue when TAHI test suite asks for something too early? Please provide /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf, just to be sure. And is there anything in syslog? Try "grep snmp /var/log/messages" (unless you have non-default log config). BTW, where do you get net-snmp-5.5-21.el6.x86_64.rpm from? RHEL 6.0 has net-snmp-5.5-27.el6. Could you try with this one? And does net-snmp-5.5-31 from RHEL 6.1 work? (This comment fully applies also to bugs #733995 and #733997... I did not change anything there either). > I did not change absolutely *anything* in ipSystemStatsInOctets, > icmpStatsInMsgs and ipNetToPhysicalAddress in new Net-SNMP.

I test it again and i found the test failed for missing package net-snmp-utils. And if net-snmp-utils installed the test will pass. I think it's a bug.What's your opinion? > Please provide /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf, just to be sure. And is there anything in > syslog? Try "grep snmp /var/log/messages" (unless you have non-default log > config). snmpd.conf is already in the attachment. And there is no log in /var/log/messages when the test failed. > (This comment fully applies also to bugs #733995 and #733997...

Your /etc/rc.d/rc.local calls /usr/bin/snmpset, which is in net-snmp-utils package. Without these snmpsets the tests won't work. Gory details: The TAHI scripts often sends a IPv6 packet to NUT and immediately checks that appropriate counter (e.g. ipSystemStatsInOctets) has increased. But snmpd reads the counter value from kernel only once in a while (5-10 seconds?) and caches them. Therefore we use the "magic" snmpset commands in your /etc/rc.d/rc.local to turn off these caches. snmpd then always reads counter values from kernel. Without snmpset (and therefore without net-snmp-utils), the tests won't work. So, I do not see any net-snmp error here. Can we agree on closing this bug?
