The snmpd.conf file on the FC6 machine look like:
# cat /usr/local/share/snmp/snmpd.conf
rwuser "admin" priv
trapsess 172.20.11.58:162 -u "admin" -a MD5 -A
"12345678" -x DES -X "87654321" -v 3 -l authPriv
trapsess 172.20.10.149:162 -u "adminwindows" -a MD5 -A
"12345678" -x DES -X "87654321" -v 3 -l authPriv

I can send a trap from the FC6 machine to my snmptrapd
at 172.20.11.58:
# snmptrap -v 3 -u test_MD5_AES -l authPriv -a MD5 -A
12345678 -x AES -X 87654321 -e
0x800000000102030405060708 172.20.11.58 0 coldStart.0

Therefore the problem is that restarting snmpd at the
FC6 machine do not send a trap properly to my
snmptrapd.
How to configure the FC6 machine to do that?
