	Another thing to keep an eye out for: if you build net-snmp from the official sources, then Fedora's /etc/init.d scripts will not work unless you have set the prefixes to be the same as used by Fedora.  If you build from the Fedora sources RPM, you should be able to use the /etc/init.d scripts, but you won't be getting the latest version (at least not the last time I checked).


	HTH,
