I have a log file. The agent logs every query received through the local
interface. All of them (1 per minute). But it logs nothing with respect
to the commands that do not work.... this would imply that the querys do
not get to the agent, right ?

I send bellow a excerpt of the snmpd init script (/etc/init.d/snmpd)

--------------------------------------------------
--------------------------------------------------
case "$1" in
  start)
    echo -n "Starting network management services:"
    if [ "$SNMPDRUN" = "yes" -a -f /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf ]; then
        start-stop-daemon --quiet --start --exec /usr/sbin/snmpd \
            -- $SNMPDOPTS
        echo -n " snmpd"
    fi
--------------------------------------------------
----------------- $SNMPDOPTS ---------------------------------
SNMPDOPTS='-C -c /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf -Lsd -Lf /dev/null -p
/var/run/snmpd.pid'
------------------------------------------------------

does this help ?

thank you
