[ale] SNMP on Linux (Debian)

[dcorbin at machturtle.com (David Corbin)]

I'm trying to get MRTG (and maybe some other SNMP stuff) set up.  I'm 
having trouble figuring out the MIB for remote interfaces.

I can do "snmpwalk host public", and spits out lots of  things that 
start with "system.", but I can't actually get any detailed information 
using snmpget. 

interfaces.ifTable.ifEntry.ifDescr has been suggested as the correct one, but when I try that I get a failure.

What's the correct way to access information about a Linux system via SNMP?

David
