Thanks Dave and Pranesh for the responses. Dave,
We were using the following options to start snmpd. "-Lsd -x tcp:localhost:705 -a -p /var/run/snmpd.pid" I removed "-a" option and the message "Received SNMP Packet from " is not logged now, but the message "Connection from UDP" is still being logged. I changed -Lsd to -Ls, but SNMPD is not coming up. There is no snmpd pid in the process list. I used the option -Lsn to have notice logs, then also SNMPD did not come up and there is no snmpd pid. Can you please let me know how to disable the message "Connection from UDP" as well ? Meanwhile I will try out the other options. Thanks & Regards, Suresh. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Dave Shield Sent: Tuesday, February 17, 2009 7:26 PM To: Pamidipati, Suresh [NETPWR/INDIA/HYDE] Cc: [email protected] Subject: Re: SNMPD logs to syslog when it receives any snmp request 2009/2/17 <[email protected]>: > We are using Net-snmp-5.4.2.1.

Those messages should only be logged if: a) You've explicitly enabled this using the '-a' flag b) You've activated verbose logging using the '-V' flag or c) You've turned on packet dumping using the '-d' flag They shouldn't be logged by default.
