Hope this isn't a FAQ...

I've just installed cricket 0.66 and tried it out on one of our routers (a cisco 7500). I've followed the intro instructions and set up the router itself and got some info out of it, but when I try the router-interface stuff I get errors for each interface, starting with what I reckon is the cause of it:
   Could not resolve OID for IfDescr

I've looked through the code and this happens in MapOid() in common.pm; it looks like the OID descriptions aren't being loaded, or aren't being parsed correctly or something.

I also had to fix what looks like it was a typo in common.pm:

236c236
< $match = ConfigTree::Cache::expandString($match, $target);

---
> 	$match = expandString($match, $target);

I tried an older version of cricket a month or so ago and it all worked fine, so I'm pretty sure that it's not something stupid on my part (though if it is it could be something worth documenting...)

I'm trying all this out on a Linux box, RedHat 6.0, perl 5.00503, rrdtool 0.99.31. All the perl modules are the latest ones from CPAN.
