you can either add a line like this to /etc/inittab and then kill -HUP 1 sn:2345:respawn:/path/to/snmpd -c /path/to/snmpd.conf -Lsd ..... rest of switches
or you can google and learn daemontools which gives more control. but don't take my word for it, go learn about init and learn about daemontools. never just paste in something like this without knowing what it means... oh course, your snmpd shouldn't be dying in the first place... perhaps you can fix that and then you won't have to bother with this thing? I do have many services under these methods, but snmpd is not one of them as it usually shouldn't be necessary... -h Hari Sekhon Jayanthi Pachaiyappan wrote: > > Hi Hari, > Do u have any sample script for doing the same. > > > Regards, > Jayanthi P > > > *Hari Sekhon <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>* > > 09/12/2007 03:49 PM > > > To > Jayanthi Pachaiyappan/CHE/[EMAIL PROTECTED] > cc > [email protected] > Subject > Re: To self start snmpd when it is killed. > > > > > > > > > > what about putting the snmp daemon under init or daemontools?
