Hi,

You have the lib, but not the MIBs.
Check this:

Suggested packages:
  snmp-mibs-downloader

PS: no need to multicast -users and -dev,

Thanks,
Jaap

Hi - need some help getting wireshark with SMI (for decoding snmp via MIBs) working on ubuntu 10.04 LTS.
I can not find a package that includes wireshark with SMI ready for install, so I googled and found:
 
But I get errors when attempting to install the SMI stuff ...

I assume if I can get this SMI stuff installed, that if I follow the rest of the compile/install that wireshark (below) with SMI will work…?
 
After installing "devscripts" via Synaptic Package Manager (so could use the "dpkg-buildpackage" command) I was able to get verion 1.2.7 of wireshark installed/working using the command below, but when I go into Preferences Name Resolution, the options to configure the MIB paths/modules are not available.
 
sudo apt-get build-dep wireshark
cd wireshark-1.2.7/
dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot -b -uc
cd ..
sudo dpkg -i tshark_1.2.7-1_amd64.deb wireshark-common_1.2.7-1_amd64.deb wireshark_1.2.7-1_amd64.deb
 
But, I can’t decode smmp mibs when I run this wireshark:
 
Any help getting wireshark with SMI working would be appreciated...
