Suse agent installation questions. (searching forum also)

[agentguerry]

I am actively searching the forum on answers to my questions about the agent, but decided to post a new thread also.

I have a successfully running server on Centos 5.3 x86_64.
I am trying to set up as of now an agent on a SLES10 x86_64 box.

I am using the pdf manual, but seem to get stuck at step 4.

The steps that I have done:

1. Created user "zabbix". (created user using "yast')

2. Untar sources. (gunzip zabbix-1.6.tar.gz && tar xvf zabbix-1.6.tar, done as root, with the files in the /tmp directory)

3. Compile code. (as root; cd into zabbix-1.6.5.. folder, then ./configure --enable-agent. It seems to build, and successfully goes to the "make install" text at the end of the build.)

4. Build agent. (as root, make)

It states to "Copy created binaries from bin/ to /opt/zabbix/bin or any other directory Other common directories are /usr/local/bin or /usr/local/zabbix/bin."

The only files in my /tmp/zabbix-1.6.5/bin folder are 2 folders, win32 and win64. I also do not see the /opt/zabbix/bin folder. Is the end user supposed to create the /zabbix folder in /opt?

Thank you for your time.

for suse just add http://download.opensuse.org/reposit...r:/monitoring/...(your OS version subdirectory) to your list of repositories, and you will have zabbix in yast
