Some questions:
Did a previous version of Net-SNMP work on this same system and stop working when you upgraded to 5.2, or is this a whole new system (or one where you upgraded the OS and Net-SNMP at the same time)?
When you say "mostly works" does that mean most traps get to their intended destinations, but only the coldStart and what you are calling a "cold stop" are missing? Or do you mean traps in general don't reach their destinations?
Sounds like it could be a network problem, so... Do you have multiple interfaces (eth0, eth1, ...) so the trap could be routed out the wrong interface? Do you have any net filtering software running on your box or between you and the trap destination that could be preventing delivery? Have you run tcpdump on the system running the agent to see if the traps are being sent? Have you inspected debug logs from the agent?

Good day,
I sent this message to the list last week, but no one replied.
I'd really like to get this problem resolved so that I can upgrade to 5.2, so I'm just trying once more... Any help would be really appreciated.
Thanks in advance!

Subject: Unable to send v2 coldstart traps under 5.2
Good day,
I've just installed net-snmp-5.2, and am doing some testing on it before we roll it out. This is on Fedora Core 2, 2.6.9 smp kernel. I grabbed the 5.2 tarball, put it into the FC2 rpm and took out the Fedora rpm patches.
It mostly works, but, now the v2 cold start and cold stop traps don't get sent. The server logs:
snmpd: send_trap: Failure in sendto (Invalid argument)
The config file entry is simply:
trap2sink x.x.x.x public
Searching came up with one person with a similar problem, who noted that the agent was trying to send his v3 traps from the localhost address (his problem didn't get resolved). I noticed that if I change the trap host to 127.0.0.1, then the trap is successfully sent via loopback. Any non-localhost address appears to fail.
Am I missing something here? I also tried putting the Fedora rpm patches back in; no luck.
Thanks in advance!
