As those who watch the CVS log messages may have noticed,
I submitted something along these lines yesterday.
Give it a whirl, and see what you think.


My plan for this weekend is to update the 'snmpd.conf' man page
to cover the various new features that have been added recently
(and probably restructure things a bit).

One thing that worries me is that this man page is already
rather long - 16 pages or so - and that will inevitably
grow as more and more gets documented.
   What do people think about splitting this into a number
of separate man pages?   The basic "man snmpd.conf" would
give a general overview (and brief descriptions of each
directive), but would point to another man page for the
full details.  Does that sound as if it would be helpful,
or more confusing?
