That's expected if you're running as non-root.

Again, that's expected when running as non-root.
Don't worry about them - the agent will run OK.

If you are using SNMP_v1, then these two lines are irrelevant.
(though you don't need both entries - rwuser covers read-access)


> rocommunity public localhost
> rwcommunity public localhost.localdomain

Again, you don't need both entries.

Try deleting both lines, and just have the one entry

rocommunity public

Then restart the agent, and see whether you can query it or not.


If not, then restart the agent using

/tmp/net-snmp-5.4.1/sbin/snmpd -f -Le -d -c
/home/uk1577/snmpd.conf udp:1161

and send the same query. Do you see anything output by the agent or not?
