I can confirm that it does not create it if the directory does not exist.  I 
ran into it this morning.  Running as root, I tried to run 5.4.1 as a master 
agentx and failed with the error about it not being able to bind ...  I then 
ran the mkdir /var/agentx directory cmd and worked fine.  I reran my original 
snmpd command line and everything function as it has previously.I've never had 
this problem before 5.4.1, bug or design feature? This occured on an as4 
box.Jayson> Subject: AW: agentx config question> Date: Mon, 30 Jul 2007
