[H-GEN] RedHat ES 3.0 and snmpd

[David de Groot]

Hi,

Has anyone else had issues with RedHat Enterprise Server 3.0 and snmpd ?

I have a cantankerous Sun v60x running the above OS and snmpd will not 
start. At one stage the daemon would start but it wouldn't bind to a 
port (namely udp 161), but now it won't even start the daemon.

On an identical machine it starts just fine with the default RedHat 
config, and binds to the correct port, so I'm fairly sure it's not the 
daemon itself, but rather something I've screwed up in the config or 
permissions (after my initial failures with the problematic machine I 
ran snmpconfig and generated a new snmpd.conf file, to no avail).

The version of snmpd is Net-SNMP 5.x (I haven't got access to the 
machine form home and forgot to write down the whole version string - 
but suffice to say it's the latest RH ES 3.0 release).

Any pointers would be greatly appreciated.

Dave
