Have you tried the solution Dave proposed? It seems so much easier than the one I gave?
If you want to implement your own private MIB to do this, first follow the NET-SNMP tutorial about extending the agent: http://www.net-snmp.org/tutorial-5/toolkit/mib_module/index.html Regards, David Dave wrote: It should be possibly to use the UCD-SNMP-MIB::extTable to handle this, by setting up a (dummy) "exec" line: exec reboot /usr/bin/uptime and then a corresponding "execfix" line: execfix reboot /usr/bin/reboot Then snmpset ..... UCD-SNMP-MIB::extErrFix.{N} i 1 (where {N} is the appropriate index) should reboot the system. But be *VERY* careful about your access control settings. This *NOT* something you want to allow general access to with the "public" or "private" communities. (Or probably any Internet-wide community-based SNMP at all!)
