How to Install SNMP support in PHP

[nick1]

Greetings,

I hope I have the right forum. I'm a bit of a newbie to Linux in general.
I have Apache and PHP installed on my Ubuntu 5.10 computer.
I'm trying to use the snmpwalk function in PHP5.
When I try to run my simple snmpwalk script, I receive the following error:


Fatal error: Call to undefined function: snmpwalk() in <filename_here>

I've looked around on google and it appears that PHP doesn't come with support for SNMP by default. How do I go about adding SNMP support to PHP? Like I said, I'm a bit of a newbie to Linux so I don't know much of anything about compiling things, if that's what it takes to gain SNMP support in PHP.

Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks,

Nick

I found a package in Synaptic called "php5-snmp." Description reads: SNMP module for php5. I installed it and rebooted the server. Seems to be working so far.
