Hi,
I just wrote a mini-howto to the installation, configuration of cacti on a CentOS host. Step-by-step, easy-to-follow instructions.
Please have a look, make comments and let me know if I should fix something.
Regards,
Ugo

Where is the tutorial? The wiki?

Because I was unaware of its existence :).
Will do.

I just posted it there

Please have a look and let me know if changes are needed.

Slight variation of the question... I'm trying out opennms (a java program that's harder to install than cacti but does autodiscovery and some non-snmp stuff too), and find that some centos machines that cacti is graphing are not automatically graphed by opennms. Has anyone else seen this or know if something special is needed in the snmpd.conf settings?

Hello,
using OpenNMS 1.2.8 on CentOS 4, I had graphing breakdown when rrdtool (fetched from dag repo) was updated to 1.2.x version, which apparently OpenNMS can't cope with. Downgraded rrdtool to 1.0.50 and I had my graphs back...

With cacti, when the upgrade occured, I just had to change the RDD version in the Cacti config. I don't know about OpenNMS, though.

Opennms is particularly irritating to install,
in order to all full access to your SNMP OID tree, you might want to modify your snmpd.conf as follows:
Find your system view line: comment out the original and add this instead:
view systemview included .1
You also might want to look at this:

After getting the jsdk and tomcat running, I didn't have any trouble with the opennms rpms and setup. And it is worth it to have everything detected automatically if it would catch all the linux snmpd's correctly.

I've already tried that, and the odd thing is that with or without it, the snmp info shows up on the node screeen but some systems are getting performance data collected and some aren't. Since this is all automatically detected I think it may have something to do with timeouts. Often if I run snmpwalk against these systems it will return some data then time out. Usually if I repeat the command it will complete the 2nd time. Perhaps opennms is getting a timeout and giving up on access.

This is a very simple config file. You may want to look at the default snmpd.conf to manage groups and more granular permissions.
#### START snmpd.conf
# This line makes the snmp daemon listen only on the loopback interface # If you want to run on an alternative port change the 161 part # (Don't forget to update the mailscanner-mrtg.conf file with the new #port agentaddress localhost:161 # Use this version instead for ucd-snmp #agentaddress 161@localhost
# This line sets up a single community string (with read-only access) # With access only permitted from localhost # If you have users logging into your machine and want to make sure they # can't easily get info from snmp change 'public' to something else rocommunity public localhost
# System Information, change this if you want syslocation Location syscontact Root root@localhost
#### FINISH snmpd.conf
