These are the random bits and bytes that come out of the brain of a Network Engineer from Springfield, IL. Hopefully they'll be of some use to someone other than myself.

Installing NMIS (Network Management Information System)
Recently I was a presenter at the annual Tech Feast conference held at Heartland Community College in Normal, IL. The conference is a gathering of technology educators in the K-12 schools of Illinois. In my presentations on network troubleshooting I mentioned the open source tool NMIS and had several requests for more information on the installation and use of the tool. This post will serve as an installation guide from a bare bones Ubuntu 10.04 LTS server install. A subsequent post will cover configuration of NMIS.
