oracle 9.2 intelligent agent

Hi,
I can see that this type of issue has been raised before, but please bear
with me I need some guidance. I am  trying to get Oracle's agent to start up
without messing around.

Solaris 9 - Generic_118558-14 sun4u sparc SUNW,Sun-Fire-V490
snmpd - NET-SNMP version 5.1.1

Originally my problem was that the Oracle agent would fail to start when
snmpd was running. This was when I slowly learnt that Sun are now
distributing net-snmp with Solaris 9 and 10.

To start with I was getting these errors in /var/log/snmpd.log:

smux_accept] accepted fd 16 from 10.x.x.x:46890
refused smux peer: oid SNMPv2-SMI::zeroDotZero, password , descr dbsnmp
[smux_accept] accepted fd 16 from 10.x.x.x:46891
refused smux peer: oid SNMPv2-SMI::zeroDotZero, password , descr dbsnmp
[smux_accept] accepted fd 16 from 10.x.x.x:46892

I tried putting this in the snmpd.conf:

smuxpeer 0.0

and to my surprise it worked!

Then I read up more on this list and checked with Oracle, because with the
old snmpdx I have been through the set-up of encapsulating the snmpd. I
followed http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_id=2360683

and again everything runs but now in snmpd.log:

/usr/local/share/snmp/snmpd .conf: line 36: Error: Already have an entry for
this process.
/usr/local/share/snmp/snmpd.conf: line 37: Error: Already have an entry for
this process.
/usr/local/share/snmp/snmpd.conf: line 38: Error: Already have an entry for
this process.
/usr/local/share/snmp/snmpd.conf: line 39: Error: Already have an entry for
this process.
[init_smux] bind failed: Address already in use
NET-SNMP version 5.1.1

When have  stopped everything and check port 1162 nothing has it open.

I would be grateful if anyone could explain to me why the "smuxpeer 0.0"
instructions works or share their experience with the encapsulation
approach.

Thanks

Pete
