Hi. A request/question? Is it possible to get the port description included in the mac search result window? Very often I need to track a machine to a specific switch port, after finding the port I need to get into the Report interface of Nav to find the description of the switch port to see who (what?) is behind the port. If the description of the switch port had been included in the mac-address search result window it would have saved me a lot of time.... - odd arne hauge

Configuration Help

Hi, I'm totally confused by the install. I believe I followed everything corrrectly. I've tested mod_python to make sure that it's working correctly. (www.modpython.org) The issue I'm having is that I cannot make NAV the Document Root of the machine. So, things seem to be getting confused. Mod_python error: "PythonHeaderParserHandler nav.web" Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/local/lib/python2.4/site-packages/mod_python/apache.py", line 287, in HandlerDispatch log=debug) File "/usr/local/lib/python2.4/site-packages/mod_python/apache.py", line 461, in import_module f, p, d = imp.find_module(parts[i], path) ImportError: No module named nav My httpd.conf file looks like: <Directory /usr/local/wwww/nav/apache/webroot> Options Indexes FollowSymLinks ExecCGI AllowOverride FileInfo Order allow,deny Allow from all </Directory> Alias /nav/ "/usr/local/www/nav/apache/webroot/" The standard .htaccess file is in place in "webroot" What am I missing? Thank you for any help! p. >From ppathiakis at eagleaccess.com Fri Sep 29 12:26:39 2006 From: ppathiakis at eagleaccess.com (Paul J.

I've posted twice to this list and no one responds. I'm sorry if this is such a low level question but I'd really like to get it working. I have index.py. It seems to be found by the browser and an attempt is made by python to render it and display it. However, I get the following: Mod_python error: "PythonHandler mod_python.publisher" Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/local/lib/python2.4/site-packages/mod_python/apache.py", line 299, in HandlerDispatch result = object(req) File "/usr/local/lib/python2.4/site-packages/mod_python/publisher.py", line 213, in handler published = publish_object(req, object) File "/usr/local/lib/python2.4/site-packages/mod_python/publisher.py", line 412, in publish_object return publish_object(req,util.apply_fs_data(object, req.form, req=req)) File "/usr/local/lib/python2.4/site-packages/mod_python/util.py", line 439, in apply_fs_data return object(**args) File "/usr/local/www/data/nav/index.py", line 44, in index if req.session.has_key('user'): AttributeError: 'mp_request' object has no attribute 'session' Now, I can see on line 44 in index.py there is the exact line right under the last part of the error. Why is the AttributeError being generated? Why is mp_request (mod_python reqest object) missing the attribute session? What is missing from httpd.conf file or other files that is not allowing this to continue? Thank you, Paul Pathiakis

Editdb doesn't like hostnames?

Apparently it is. As the format goes: #roomid:ip:orgid:catid:[ro:serial:rw:function:subcat1:subcat2..] ^^ Firstly, EditDB should not blow up like that over such an error in the input. I would likely file that as a bug - if you'd like to, you can file it yourself at http://sf.net/projects/nav . Secondly, I do think it should support DNS lookup when host names are used in bulk input. I believe it already does so when adding a single device. This should be added as a feature request on the above page. -- mvh Morten Brekkevold UNINETT

Now I have another question regarding the traffic map; Is it possible to add switches and not just routers to containers? I'm planning to use this on a company network but it consists of switches only, But I still want to monitor the traffic between them. -- Erik Weber

UNINETT is about to launch several Debian based servers for our customers, and these will be running NAV. When preparing installation procedures for these servers, I've had the opportunity to actually install and test the Debian package of NAV myself. NAV is unfortunately picky about where it likes its Cricket to be installed, something I hope we'll be fixing soon. I've followed the README.Debian file, and I happened to overlook part of the installation instructions. With Cricket installed from source in /usr/local/cricket as README.Debian suggests, I have the same problem as you do, and I've found that the quickest solution to the problem is to do as the README says and add the following symlink inside /usr/local/cricket: ln -s ./ cricket -- mvh The engineer previously known as Morten Vold UNINETT
