I wanted to see if this issue was resolved in a later release of either NET-SNMP or the Linux kernel itself. The issue is concerned with using AgentX on the master and connecting subagents to the NET-SNMP 5.0.9 master snmpd binary on a 2.4.20 release of RedHat Linux.
After loading the SNMPD master AgentX (with my snmpd.conf file options) agent, I can connect my subagent to it. Initially, I receive packets on the opened SNMP session, but after a few GET operations, all master packets sent to the subagent seems to disappear. The master's snmpd/select log always indicates a count of 0 packets sent. And, after a few retries, the master unloads all registered tables/scalars leaves from the subagent registries, and crashes with a Segmentation Fault.
Can anyone help with more information on this? Was there a Linux patch or NET-SNMP 5.0.9 patch for this problem?
Thanks Manish
