I'd strongly suggest that you upgrade to 5.2.2, or
5.3.0.1.
The 5.0.x line is extremely old code now, and things have
moved
on a lot since then.

Why do you want
to send *two* copies of each trap to each
of these destinations? Please
use *EITHER* "trapsink" *OR*
"informsink" for any given host receiver.
Not both.
--Thanks, I've removed the 'trapsink' lines. Just to confirm,
the remaining 'informsink' lines will send all generated traps to the specified
destinations?--

That looks good.
Presumably you also have a
"createUser internal ..."
entry somewhere?
--Uhmm, no. The file I listed in the original email was
complete. I've now added the line "createUser internal MD5 "<some
phrase>"" to the snmpd.conf file just above the "agentSecName" line. Is that
all that's required? I've tested this new configuration and am still not
generating traps for process problems.--
What do you see if you walk the
usmUserSecurityName object?
--"internal"--

ntpd), nothing happens.
What do you see if you walk the prTable?
Has the corresponding
prErrorFlag been set?
-- Yes, the prErrorFlag is being set and cleared properly for
the specified process, just no traps.--
Try running the agent with
'-Dmte' - what debug output do you see?
--I'll try that and let you
know.--
