Re: snmpd.conf problem...

=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0 it is working fine=A0now...but i got some other er=
rors ...please find the same.
when=A0I start the agent we have to give the name of both configuration fil=
es /etc/snmpd.conf , /var/net-snmp/snmpd.conf=A0 ? =

=A0
/usr/local/sbin/snmpd -c /var/net-snmp/snmpd.conf,/etc/snmpd.conf =

=A0
i killed the snmpd and added the line :
net-snmp-config --create-snmpv3-user -ro -a "netadminpassword" netadmin
after this the following line is gets stored in /var/net-snmp/snmpd.conf
usmUser 1 3 0x80001f88802d0eb45600000000386d438b 0x6e657461646d696e00 0x6e6=
57461646d696e00 NULL .1.3.6.1.6.3.10.1.1.2 0xb3b1ea6a70f6f27c14101b0da01ea=
70c .1.3.6.1.6.3.10.1.2.2 0xb3b1ea6a70f6f27c14101b0da01ea70c ""
but when i do snmpget i am getting the following error :
[root@localhost ~]# snmpget -v 3 -u netadmin -l authNoPriv -a MD5 -A netadm=
npassword 172.20.1.64 sysUpTime.0
snmpget: Timeout (Sub-id not found: (top) -> sysUpTime)
[root@localhost ~]# snmptranslate -Le sysUpTime

>=A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 I followed the same procedure but still it is removing=
the line from /var/net-snmp/snmpd.conf .
>=A0 1. killall snmpd

What is in the file /var/net-snmp/snmpd.conf after having done this?
I'd also suggest you run the command
=A0 =A0 ps -ef | grep snmp
=A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 to check that the agent is indeed stopped.


>=A0 2. run the net-snmp-config --create-snmpv3-user .....
>=A0 =A0 =A0 it is giving me the=A0 following errors :
>=A0 adding the following line to /var/net-snmp/snmpd.conf:
>
>=A0 =A0 createUser username MD5 "authpass" DES privpass

And does it?
What is the actual contents of this file now?


>=A0 adding the following line to /tmp/rootfilesystem/usr/local/share/snmp/=
snmpd.conf:
>=A0 =A0 rouser username
>=A0 touch: /tmp/rootfilesystem/usr/local/share/snmp/snmpd.conf: No such fi=
le or directy
>=A0 /usr/local/bin/net-snmp-config: /usr/local/bin/net-snmp-config: 661: c=
annot cret
>=A0 /usr/local/bin/net-snmp-config: shift: 661: can't shift that many

Hmmm...


>=A0 then manually i added the line rouser username in /etc/snmpd.conf .

What are the contents of this file?


>=A0 3. and when i start the snmpd it replaces the line with NULL .

Which file are you talking about here?
What are the exact contents?



>=A0 the second problem is :
>=A0 and if user want to create the user remotely

Then they should use the "snmpusm" command.

net-snmp-config is used for adding an entry locally
(e.g. if there isn't already a suitable SNMPv3 user to act as a template).
snmpusm is used for adding an entry remotely
(but requires suitable write access for an existing SNMPv3 user
with similar authentication characteristics).

See the man page for details.
