Re: snmptrap to localhost

I figure that my trap receiver is snmptrapd.
I usually restart de snmpd and snmptrapd daemons
on my local box with
service snmpd restart and
service snmptrapd restart.

I used the snmpconf to generate the files
snmp.conf
snmpd.conf
snmptrapd.conf.

I thought this was the correct procedure to make
a minimal monotoring service.
