Does anybody here have a sysV iniscript for running the agent as a daemon on startup, and allowing interaction with it using chkconfig?.

I managed to install the agent on Linux, juts some easy tips:

1. Install make, gcc and  gcc-c++: #yum update && yum install make gcc gcc-c++

2. Follow the manual for UNIX here: http://goo.gl/9EmNd

3. Add an iptables Exception:
   a) vi /etc/sysconfig/iptables.
   b) Add the following line just after the SNMP exception: -A INPUT --protocol tcp --dport 4700 -j ACCEPT

   This is a dump of my iptables' config file first few lines:

   # Firewall configuration written by system-config-firewall
   # Manual customization of this file is not recommended.
   *filter
   :INPUT ACCEPT [0:0]
   :FORWARD ACCEPT [0:0]
   :OUTPUT ACCEPT [0:0]
   -A INPUT -m state --state ESTABLISHED,RELATED -j ACCEPT
   -A INPUT -p icmp -j ACCEPT
   -A INPUT -i lo -j ACCEPT
   -A INPUT --protocol udp --dport 161 -j ACCEPT
   -A INPUT --protocol tcp --dport 4700 -j ACCEPT

4. Add startup services (courtesy of Victor): http://goo.gl/9LoVq

   here are startup files in source tree under contrib/startup/redhat. Copy netxmsd and nxagentd to /etc/init.d, and run

   chkconfig --add nxagentd
   chkconfig --add netxmsd

   [li]
   Run the service:
   #service nxagentd start

Regards.

EDIT: So I found it in the forum...lazy me. Added this and iptables exception.
