The snmpd daemon is basically scanning the /proc filesystem for a process that is named <insert_your_name_here>. It does have to be an exact match, IIRC (i.e., "proc ntp" won't find processes named "ntpd"), but you should know what your process is going to be named, correct? =) HTH, -=Tom Nail ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ Net-snmp-coders mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/net-snmp-coders
