I'm using 5.4  version, and i added agentxRetries 0 in all the snmpd.conf (/usr/local/share/snmp/snmpd.conf, /var/net-snmp/snmpd.conf ,/etc/snmp/snmpd.conf ) and its working fine now.
But I need another help. how can i check tat my agent is looking into which confi file from the 3 locations given above.?

 Which  version of Net-snmp are you using..?
 With  "-r 0" option in snmp request and agentxRetries as 0, there should be only one  request received by the subagent. 
 Are  you sure snmpd is reading the same file "snmpd.conf" in which you added "agentxRetries  0"..? 
 [You can check that by adding some invalid  token/data in snmpd.conf and see if it throws any error  ]
 Did you mention retries as 0 ( -r  0)  while sending snmp request..?

 Suresh.

Hi,
   Thanks for the reply. I did as u    told but still its forwarding the requests to subagent multiple timings. But    this time the request id is the same. Previously it was different.     But  I want the request to be sent only one time. For this wat else I    need to do. Please do help me in this    regard.
Thanks,


             Hi,
      
     The default value of no of agentxRetries (from SNMPD to Subagent      for Agentx requests) is 5.
     You can configure this by specifying the token agentxRetries in      snmpd.conf file as below.
      
     agentxRetries 0 
     #      This means 0 retries.
      
     And the default value of no of retries of any snmp request (snmpget,      snmpset, snmpgetnext, etc from snmp manager to SNMPD) is also 5. You can      specify any other value for retries using -r option in snmp      request. Example is given below.
      
     snmpgetnext -v2c -c public -r 0 localhost 1
      
      
     Regards,
     Suresh.

Hi,
    I am running an        MasterAgent and a Subagent. When I send a snmpget request the master is        sending the same to subagent through agentx about 50 times before timeout.        Is there any way by which i can control the master to forward the snmp        request to subagent only for 4 to 5 times and not more than that. Since        this creating a problem in our system.
