I just installed the Linux MSM package from LSI...
I had to add these packages to a minimal 6.2 install for what its worth...

yum install libstdc++.i686 compat-libstdc++-33.i686 libX11 libX11.i686 libXi libXi.i686 libXtst libXtst.i686 xauth net-snmp net-snmp-utils csh
The X stuff was required by the GUI manager, I suspect if you did a
agent-only install, that wouldn't be needed.
I'm a total novice when it comes to snmp. but i'm reading some
howto's and stumbling around.
