ASWM for Linux ASWM for Linux FAQ Q. How do I know that ASWM is installed on a host? A. There are many ways to check this. First, you can use rpm: # rpm -qa | grep aswm rpm will report a package named aswm-1.0-1 (version and release numbers will vary) if ASWM is installed. Second, you can check if the directory /var/www/aswm exists along with the file /etc/rc.d/init.d/httpd_aswm. Q. What will happen if I did not do a "post installation"? A.
ASWM for Linux Q. How can I check whether ASWM has started? And how do I start it manually if it has not started? A. You can use the “ps” command to check. For example: # ps ax | grep http And if you see some process entry such as XXXXX ? S X:XX /usr/sbin/httpd -f /var/www/aswm/conf/httpd.conf where X could be any digit. Then at least the Apache HTTP Server has started. If ASWM has not started, just login as the root user and execute: # /etc/rc.d/init.
ASWM for Linux Q. The browser showed a message “Browser lost connection to ASWM server. Close and reopen a new browser and connect ASWM server after the problem is fixed.” Is anything wrong here? A. While automatic update feature is enabled, ASWM pages will routinely detect the network status. If network problems occurs that stops your Internet connection, the links on the left side will no longer respond.
ASWM for Linux Q. The manual emphasizes that ASWM uses web pages based on the Apache HTTP Server. Is there anything I should know about the ASWM's configuration file for httpd? A. ASWM are web pages which perform ASMA functions. However, these web pages are written in PHP scripts and extensively dependent on the SNMP functions in the Apache's PHP module. Since SNMP features are not initially included in PHP module libphp4.
ASMA for Netware Install ASMA for Netware 4.x/5.x/6.x (CD Item 3) NOTE: ASMA for Netware does not support ASWM. On some server models, ASMA is not supported on Netware 5.x. Before you install ASUS System Monitoring Agent For NetWare, you should make sure that SNMP NLM is already installed properly in the Netware system, because the ASUS System Monitoring Agent For NetWare needs NWSNMP (Netware SNMP) to work correctly.
