How to configured (create) extend commands dynamically

Hi there,

I'd like to ask how it is possible to configure extend directives
dynamically. In other words, I want to create a new extend directive when
the snmp deamon is running.

I tried to pass new arguments to an existing command so I tried to set up
the NET-SNMP-EXTEND-MIB::nsExtendArgs object (It was empty) when the
NET-SNMP-EXTEND-MIB::nsExtendCommand."/bin/echo"(that is an example) object
existed. I found out it was not posible, because the MAX-ACCESS was set to
read-create which basically means it can be either read or created if it
doesn't exist yet (Correct me if I'm mistaken).

My question is:
How can I create a new extend command and pass new arguments by using
snmpset command. I know it should be something like:

snmpset -v 2c -c key computer.com nsExtendCommand.\"command\" s
"/bin/command"

but it gives me this:

Error in packet.
Reason: wrongValue (The set value is illegal or unsupported in some way)
Failed object: NET-SNMP-EXTEND-MIB::nsExtendCommand.

Thanks


Roman
