Question

How do I install NetSNMP.ppd in MSWin32?

Answer

Modify the NetSNMP.ppd package so that the VERSION attribute of the SOFTPKG tag contains the version of ActivePerl currently installed on your system.

For example, if the command 'perl -v' returns:

This is perl, v5.10.0 built for MSWin32-x86-multi-thread (with 5 registered patches, see perl -V for more detail) ...

then you would modify the <SOFTPKG NetSNMP.ppd as follows:

<SOFTPKG NAME="NetSNMP" VERSION="5,10,0">
