Hi Dave
What i meant by both patches is that I applied them one by one.
Both have some changes to be made for 5.3.1 code which I made and Applied
them.
After Patching..I did a make uninstall and recompiled the code again after
running ./configure.
However the error still persists.The container error on SIGHUP that is.

Then I checked out the 5.2.4 tarball which seems to support Localized Keys.
It is not breaking on SIGHUP also.I tested the build on an x86 machine also.
I reckon this build should be fine for me.

However I faced another issue while compilation.I do not see any .so files
when I compiled and linked them inside .libs directory.
Are there any changes I should make on the build for the so files to
appear.Kindly let me know.

As far as the earlier problem is concerned these are the details Step by
Step:

1.First the build tried was 5.3.2.
Here I applied the net-snmp-5.3-shared-ip-4.patch and it was successfully
applied.
However when I did a SIGHUP i found the problem of subcontainer still
exists.

2.Then I tried the alternate solution of container-atomic-insert.patch and
when I applied the same it also succesfully applied.
However when I tried starting SNMP daemon it threw me an error in the
/var/log/snmpd.log saying undeclared silent flag.There is mention of the
same in the Patch thread also which says this needs to be provided by
another patch.

3.Then I tried both of these things(one-by-one) on 5.3.1.
This succeeded without any errors(However I had to change the code manually
due to some line locations being here and there in the patches.
Then on run time I Still found the container Errors on SIGHUP.

I did a make uninstall and repeated configure and make Steps in all the
combinations.

4.Then i tried doing the same steps with 5.2.4.Everything is working fine
here except that I dont see the Sos being created.

*Architechture:
2.6.10-1.771_FC2 #1 Mon Mar 28 00:50:14 EST 2005 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux*

Thanks for all the help Dave/Thomas..i will be trying out with the nightly
Tar Balls also.

Thanks again

</div>I'm not sure whether it's sensible to apply *both* patches. 
According to the comments in that tracker item, the container 
patch is meant as an *alternative* to the original shared-ip patch. 
I have no idea whether the two work together cleanly or not. 
 
 
I'm inclined to second Thomas' suggestion.   Forget about patching 
the code yourself.   Grab a copy of the net-snmp-svn-V5-3-patches.... 
tarball from <a href="http://www.net-snmp.org/nightly/tarballs/" target="_blank">http://www.net-snmp.org/nightly/tarballs/</a> 
  At least that way we know you're working with a clean code base. 
 
Remove any existing Net-SNMP installations, 
configure, compile and install this, and then try your tests again. 
If they still don't work, please tell us *exactly* what requests you 
attempted, how the agent was configured, what you expected to 
see and what actually happened. 
  Looking back through your earlier queries, they tend to be a 
bit light on detail, which makes it difficult for us to assist you.
