Re: starting snmpd daemon

Yes I may have a guess.
Your environment is different when you run as a user. In particular It doesn't look you are reading your mibs from sbmp.conf during startup.

  Subject: starting snmpd daemon


  Hi Users,

   

  I am facing a peculiar problem when I try to start my snmpd using rc.d. The problem is when I try to extract OID values using snmpwalk for my enterprise OID it is always coming as 0. But when I execute the snmpd manually from command line the perfect values are coming.

   

  My SNMPD file present in /etc/init.d/ and it looks like:

   

  #! /bin/sh -e

  # Check for daemon presence

   

  export PATH=/sbin:/usr/local/sbin:/bin:/usr/local/bin

   

  . /lib/lsb/init-functions

  test -x /usr/local/sbin/snmpd || exit 0

  test -x /usr/local/sbin/snmptrapd || exit 0

   

   

  TRAPDRUN=no

  TRAPDOPTS='-Lsd -p /var/run/snmptrapd.pid'

   

  # Cd to / before starting any daemons.

  cd /

   

   

   

  case "$1" in

    start)

      echo -n "Starting network management services:"

      if [ "$SNMPDRUN" = "yes" -a -f /usr/local/share/snmp/snmpd.conf ]; then

        #start-stop-daemon --quiet --start --exec /usr/local/sbin/snmpd &

        /usr/local/sbin/snmpd

        echo -n " snmpd"

      fi

      if [ "$TRAPDRUN" = "yes" -a -f /usr/local/share/snmp/snmptrapd.conf ]; then

        start-stop-daemon --quiet --start --exec /usr/local/sbin/snmptrapd  -- $TRAPDOPTS &

        echo -n " snmptrapd"

      fi

      echo "."

      ;;

    stop)

      echo -n "Stopping network management services:"

      start-stop-daemon --quiet --stop --oknodo --exec /usr/local/sbin/snmpd

      echo -n " snmpd"

      start-stop-daemon --quiet --stop --oknodo --exec /usr/local/sbin/snmptrapd

      echo -n " snmptrapd"

      echo "."

      ;;

    *)

     log_success_msg "Usage: /etc/init.d/snmpd {start|stop}"

     exit 1

  ;;esac

  exit 0

   

  Does anyone have any idea about the cause?

   

  Br,

  Ambika
