Then, I posted that I had failed to install the snmp utilities
so had not done everything necessary. At about that time, I
received the message I am partly quoting here.

Thanks greatly. I did in fact not have it, installed it, and the
problem is still unchanged.

	I installed portmamager and it reported everything
present.

No complaints at all.

	When installing mrtg, I left the ipv6 box unchecked as
we have none, and turned on the snmpV3 support which made no
difference.  Still the same error:

Can't locate SNMP_util.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /usr/local/bin/../lib/mrtg2 /u
sr/local/bin /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.8/BSDPAN /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.
8.8/mach /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8 /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl /us
r/local/lib/perl5/5.8.8/mach /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.8 .) at /usr/local/bin/mrt
g line 292.

Since this is more or less a "dead in the water" error, I
suspect I am doing something in the wrong sequence or am not
totally starting from scratch on the mrtg make. I have been
doing

make clean, then make configure and then make install. 
There is no problem at all with the make process so I
am at a loss as to what to try next.
