Title: RE: [Ethereal-users] Re: Problems loading libsnmp-0.4.2.1.so | Resolution

Hey guys,

        That is exactly what the problem was.  I guess I am a little dyslexic :)  So I am up and running with this puppy, and boy does it kick butt.  Thanks to all that helped me.

Billy

    But that looks like he has both version 4.1.2 and 4.2.1.

    Since they are in different directories there are probably two sets of headers also. I would suspect the 4.1 2 headers are in /usr/include and the 4.2.1 headers in /usr/local/include

    Remove the 4.1 2 package, or uninstall and reinstall 4.2.1 specifying -prefix=/usr in the build

    Then I have absolutely no idea why the run-time linker (I'm presuming
    that Ethereal *did* compile, but that it failed to run) didn't find
    those header files; I'd suggest asking the supplier of the OS you're
    running.
