This, wasn’t too easy to actually get going. Though I don’t have very much experience with SNMP, which may have been part of my problems. The whole SNMP / RES_SNMP with Asterisk is all very beta too from what I’ve been reading, and since the only other document really that I can find on setting this up, is by Mark Spencer himself, I hope this might help some other users out there too....
