I ran BTONEILL's targetmaker that produced the /opt/rtg/etc/targets.cfg file.
At the time I was running RTG 0.7.4 and it came to my attention that
the targets.cfg I was using required the newer cvs version.
So I did a "make clean" on the RTG 0.7.4 version, downloaded the cvs
version and proceeded to install.
I have never seen a valid targets.cfg since I am new to both RTG and
BTONEILL's rtgtargmkr replacement so I apoligize for not being a big
help.
Please take a look at the following file and tell me if it is not correct.
It was produced by targetmaker.   I do have a server by the name of
lnxcapd at the address specified of 172.22.130.10.   My community's
name is "public" and the snmpd daemon supports version 2.

In the mean time, should I try to run rtgtargmkr.pl to see what it produces.
