trouble with SCRIPT directive

["kevin" <khanrahan (at) charter.net>]

Hi all,

 

This might seem long winded but I wanted to describe the problem in detail
and see if anyone could help please.

 

 I am trying to make use of the SCRIPT function in hobbit-alerts.cfg I am
trying to send snmp traps from hobbit to another receiver using a utility
called trapgen and I think the syntax of SCRIPT and trapgen are getting in
each others way. 

 

SCRIPT seems to have this syntax:

 

SCRIPT  <program>  <recipient>  <options>

 

And trapgen has this syntax:

 

trapgen  -d  destination   <options>

 

So, when I try to assemble it, it has this form:

 

SCRIPT  /home/hobbit/server/ext/trapgen -d 10.10.0.13 <options>

 

I get an error in the page.log that says trapgen needs at least a
destination specified as:

 

trapgen -d IPADDRESS   ..but it DOES have a destination!!!

 

It seems that the SCRIPT directive is intercepting the "-d IPADDRESS" and
interpreting it as it's own "recipient" directive.??

 

Is there a way around this? Is there a way to ignore the "recipient"
directive using SCRIPT?

 

Thanks for any ideas
