Dear sirs: Has anyone had good luck getting snmp setup and running smooth on AIX5.2? Our AIX version is 5.2 and with default snmp, it works fine. Now I want to replace the default snmp with NetSnmp. I have downloaded the NetSnmp installation package for AIX from : http://aixpdslib.seas.ucla.edu/packages/net-snmp.html I install it to my AIX5.2 system, it is success with no error. But when I stop the AIX default snmp and try to start the netsnmp. I get no error but the netsnmp can not be started. bash-2.05b# lssrc -s snmpd bash-2.05b# cd /usr/local/sbin bash-2.05b# ./snmpd bash-2.05b# ps -ef|grep snmp --not snmpd is ruuning. bash-2.05b# (Before that I have used the /usr/local/bin/snmpconf to create a snmpd.conf and copy to /usr/local/share/snmp/ Attached please find the snmpd.conf.) Yet the snmpd is not started. check the /var/log/snmpd.log, there is no a error. Do I miss some steps or I need do more..? Any comments or suggestion will be high appreciated! Best Regards, Tango
