Well if the subagent can't connect to the master - that would tend to explain why the master isn't receiving alarms from it! > The master agent is running as: > "snmpd -C 127.0.0.1:161". (This all story belongs to windows). So the master agent isn't reading in any configuration file? Which means: a) It won't accept any incoming requests b) It won't try to run as an AgentX master ?? > Can anybody help? Not really. You're telling the master agent to do nothing at all, and that's exactly what's happening. Things look to be working correctly. A more usual configuration would be to have an snmpd.conf file containing something like rocommunity public master agentx agentXSocket tcp:127.0.0.1:705 and run the master agent using that. This would at least give the subagent a fighting chance of having something to connect to. Dave ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
