zabbix_proxy won't start on FreeBSD

[cbuechler]

I've tried both FreeBSD 7.2 and 8.1, but zabbix_proxy (1.8.2 built from ports) on FreeBSD won't start with a very basic minimum configuration (or any configuration).

truss shows it's looking for nss_nis.so.1, nss_compat.so.1, nss_files.so.1, and nss_dns.so.1. None of those exist on FreeBSD. I'm not sure if that's why it fails to start. Launching it just results in nothing, it exits without logging anything.

I'm not sure what to check/do from here, seems like it should "just work" on FreeBSD but that's not the case.

I have installed and work zabbix proxy on my FreeBSD 8.0. Do you have pkg compat6x-i386?

Did you do anything out of the ordinary to compile it? Is it built from ports?

I didn't have compat6x, but I installed it and it makes no difference, same behavior, same truss output.

Thanks for the reply
