SNMP Trap Query - Any thoughts?

I will like to know regarding SNMP Trap OIDS issue I;m facing below - 

 

      - On RedHat 3 , my subagent code is able to send custom trap OID ( defined in custom mib ). 

       - On RedHat 4 / SUSE , with similar configuration , the subagent fails to send custom trap OID reporting "Var Bind Failure".

        On Changing the code to send "{ 1,3,6,1,6,3,1,1,4,1,0}; /* snmpTrapOID.0 */"  with my custom trap information  - it works ! Ofcourse the trap is sent as snmpTrapOID.0 as depcited in trap log file. 

 

 

I;m wondering if this is a configuration issue OR their is only provision to send snmpTrapOID.0 traps?  

 

On both RH4 and SUSE 9 - there are additional snmp files  files 

     - /usr/share/snmp/mib2c.notify.conf   - with entry static oid snmptrap_oid[] = {1, 3, 6, 1, 6, 3, 1, 1, 4, 1, 0};  

 

This file is NOT present in RH3. Though mib2c is only used for custom code generation - wondering? 

 

My code change is as below ----

 


 /* trap definition objects */
 memset(&var_trap, 0, sizeof(struct variable_list));

/#if 0   //  workaround to fix the problem of not showing event OID
 var_trap.name = objid_snmptrap; /* snmpTrapOID.0 */
 var_trap.name_length = sizeof(objid_snmptrap)/sizeof(oid); /* number of sub-ids */
//#endif

 //  workaround to fix the problem of not showing event OID
 //var_trap.name = eventOID;
 //var_trap.name_length = OIDLEN_14;
 //var_trap.val.objid = eventOID;
 var_trap.val.objid =  objid_snmptrap;
 var_trap.val_len = OIDLEN_14;
 var_trap.type = ASN_OBJECT_ID;
 var_trap.next_variable = &var_obj; /* next variable */

/#if 0
 fprintf(stderr, "systemManagement Event-----------:  \n");
 printOID(var_trap.name, var_trap.name_length, "var_trap.name");
 printOID(var_trap.val.objid, var_trap.val_len, "var_trap.val");
 printOID(eventOID, OIDLEN_14, "eventOID");
/#endif

 /* additional objects */
