 From the Makefile:

> DBD += devSnmp.dbd

> DBD += modbusSupport.dbd
> DBD += caPutLog.dbd

This tells make that it should generate a file named caPutLog.dbd (and
modbusSupport.dbd etc), which is probably not what you want. Instead you
want to *use* the existing dbd (e.g. the one from the caPutlog module)
to include it in your IOC's dbd file:

> # snmp.dbd will be made up from these files:

snmp_DBD += caPutLog.dbd

PS: you might want to send questions like this to [email protected]
-- it often turns out that the problem is not specific to the particular
module (as in this case).
