I am using root credential to do all these so no issues with permissions. I have changed these two files
/usr/local/share/snmp/snmpd.conf ( added "rwuser ravi auth system" ) /var/net-snmp/snmpd.conf ( added "createUser ravi MD5 mypass123" and then started snmpd) The snmpd was not running when i modified above files. Used following to start snmpd after that. ./snmpd -c /usr/local/share/snmp/snmpd.conf,/var/net-snmp/snmpd.conf I found following warnings while starting snmpd /var/net-snmp/snmpd.conf: line 50: Warning: Unknown token: engineBoots. /var/net-snmp/snmpd.conf: line 51: Warning: Unknown token: oldEngineID.
