Hi, I have a QNAP hard drive enclosure that can listen out for APC compatible UPS (uninterruptable power supply) SNMP traps and shut down automatically if the power fails. That works fine. However, I'm trying to enable that same functionality on a Linux box on the same network. Currently, the SNMP traps are broadcast to 192.168.1.255. The QNAP is receiving those just fine. I also wrote a small UPS utility for Windows, and that works too. However, now that I'm trying to use snmptrapd from net-snmp I've just run out of luck! I've tried some debug arguments from the wiki "-f -Lo" to see if any traps are being received at all, but there is nothing. There is packet filtering on the Linux box, but I temporarily disabled that, with no success (tested by telneting to the box, which is normally blocked). Can snmptrapd even receive broadcast traps? What can I try to get this working? I've tried all the currently supported versions of net-snmp (5.2.5, 5.3.2.2 and 5.4.2). Thanks in advance for any help! -- Andrew Gregory <mailto:[email protected]> <http://www.scss.com.au/family/andrew/> ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ Net-snmp-users mailing list [email protected] Please see the following page to unsubscribe or change other options: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/net-snmp-users
