-Coders,
is there a good reason to *not* set NETSNMP_DS_AGENT_NO_ROOT_ACCESS
(i.e. imply the "-r" option) if the agent is run as a *non-root* user
(through either "-u" option, "agentUser" token or setting
NETSNMP_DS_AGENT_USERID)?
I tend to think that anyone who wants to run the agent as a non-root
user would also want to set NETSNMP_DS_AGENT_NO_ROOT_ACCESS, but this
doesn't seem to be the case, currently. What's even more odd is that if
he uses the "agentUser" token, there's not even a corresponding config
token to specify NETSNMP_DS_AGENT_NO_ROOT_ACCESS.
Thoughts?
