Re: Need help with snmptrapd command

Lee,
Thanks for the pointer ... as per the snmpcmd(1) documentation , the file
is supposed to exist in the following path ...
/usr/local/etc/snmp/snmp.conf  or ~/.snmp/snmp.conf ...
I don't see them ... guess will have to make one ....
Will revert with the outcome once I try it out.
