Re: Setting up (basic) SNMP Masteragent and Subagent support

Hi Wes / Rest of mailing list,

I am getting closer to a solution!  Here is the current state of play...

I am testing with an agentx master and subagent* running on a single 
server*, and sending traps to another server in the network.

My agentx master config file looks like this:

  *master agentx

  rocommunity  public

  trap2sink 192.168.1.97
  trapcommunity  public

  authtrapenable  1
  syslocation  vosscluster
  syscontact  [email protected]*


and I start it with the extra flags:

  *SNMPD_FLAGS="-x 127.0.0.1:705 -Ls DAEMON -c /etc/snmp/snmpd-ha.conf
  -Lf /var/log/snmp-ha.log"*

It seems to run fine.  I can see in the logs...

  *Turning on AgentX master support.
  NET-SNMP version 5.2.1.2*

and a quick look at "netstat -an | grep 705" shows...

  ~ # netstat -an | grep 705
  tcp        0      0 127.0.0.1:705           0.0.0.0:*                 
LISTEN


and on the snmptrap server (*192.168.1.97*) i see in the logs...

  *2006-05-10 15:25:50 vsr1 [UDP: [192.168.1.54]:33095]:
  SNMPv2-MIB::sysUpTime.0 = Timeticks: (17) 0:00:00.17      
SNMPv2-MIB::snmpTrapOID.0 = OID: SNMPv2-MIB::coldStart    
SNMPv2-MIB::snmpTrapEnterprise.0 = OID:
  NET-SNMP-MIB::netSnmpAgentOIDs.10*

Now when I try to start my subagent, whose logs look like this:

  *rocommunity  public

  agentXPingInterval 2

  syslocation  vosscluster

  syscontact  [email protected]

  proc  apache 500 1
  proc  mymgr 1

  disk  / 2%
  disk  /data/pgsql 2%

  load  12 10 8
  *

the logs for it show...

  *NET-SNMP version 5.2.1.2
  Error: Failed to connect to the agentx master agent: Unknown host
  (No such file or directory)
  Error: Failed to connect to the agentx master agent: Unknown host
  (No such file or directory)
  Error: Failed to connect to the agentx master agent: Unknown host
  (No such file or directory)
  Error: Failed to connect to the agentx master agent: Unknown host
  (No such file or directory)
  Error: Failed to connect to the agentx master agent: Unknown host
  (No such file or directory)*

and on and on.  Also there is no change to the "netstat -an | grep 705" 
command.

It seems that the subagent is not connecting to the master agent.

Any ideas anyone??


Many Thanks,

Aaron
