I'm wondering if your config file isn't being read. Also, Net-SNMP's agent will *keep* the engineID that it knows it used in the past, regardless of what the settings say to do (long story, but this is actually a good thing). If you ever started it up in the past before changing the .conf file, you'll need to manually wipe out the 'oldEngineID' line from /var/net-snmp/snmpd.conf. -- Wes Hardaker SPARTA, Inc. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ uberSVN's rich system and user administration capabilities and model configuration take the hassle out of deploying and managing Subversion and the tools developers use with it.
