so you can do 1 of 2 things (choose one)
a) run snmpd like this: # ./snmpd -f -Lo -c /path/to/your/snmpd.conf
I tried that but it gives me the same error. Then I tried
with
./snmpd -f -Lo -x udp:127.0.0.1:161
/tmp/snmp.skt
Then there is no error and it displays the message
NET-SNMP 5.4
But there is no SNMP agent listening after I checked it with
netstat -ultnp
The following is the output as displayed by netstat
-ultnp
Active Internet connections (only servers)

As you can see from the last line , snmpd is not in listening mode.
Please somebody help me in starting the agent so that it responds to the
snmp commands.
With Thanks and Regards
