I'm running Red Hat 7.3 and starting snmpd like this: /usr/sbin/snmpd -s -l /dev/null -P /var/run/snmpd -a
It starts and runs correctly. When I do ps -ef, I see: root 7044 1 0 Oct27 ? 00:00:15 /usr/sbin/snmpd -s -l /dev/null -P /var/run/snmpd -a All good so far. Now I want to restart snmpd (because I've made some changes in snmpd.conf, say). But when I issue kill -9 7044, snmpd stays firmly in place. If I say: snmpd stop or snmp restart I see: Stopping snmpd [FAILED] and ps -ef yields the same result as before. And I can tell that it's the same copy of snmpd running because: 1. Same pid. 2. Same options to snmpd, where I'd changed them in the file ../rc.d/init.d/snmpd. 3. It even has yesterday's date stamp. What am I doing wrong? What can I do to kill this daemon?
