Dear all, I've an issue with the net-snmp 5.8 package, it's the first time, I used this protocol. I think that I've missed something either in the configuration of the snmpd or in the writing of the configuration file. See attached, a description of my problem.
1st step: ====== I've created a Virtual Machine which contains an Ubuntu distribution freshly installed. Linux phil-VirtualBox 4.18.0-21-generic #22~18.04.1 Ubuntu SMP x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux 2nd step: ====== On this machine, I've installed the gcc, make and ld utilities in the following versions: - gcc 7.4.0 - GNU Make 4.1 - GNU ld (GNU binutils for Ubuntu) 2.30 3rd step: ====== I've downloaded the net-snmp-5.8.tar.gz and enter the following commands: tar xzvf net-snmpd-5.8.tar.gz ln -s net-snmpd-5.8 net-snmpd 4th step: ====== Once in the net-snmpd directory; I've tried to configure it by entering: sudo ./configure and answer all the questions ... >From this step, I had a problem link to perl module, after a search on google; >I found out to add specific options to remove it => --without-perl-modules >--disable-embedded-perl --disable-perl-cc-checks After this point, I had a new problem link to the snmpd daemon which complains about a the following shared library libsnmp35.so; ;fix by adding --disable-static --libdir=/usr/lib Then, from this step; I've succeeded to build the snmp daemon (i.e. snmpd) sudo ./configure --prefix=/usr/bin --without-perl-modules --disable-embedded-perl --disable-perl-cc-checks --with-default-snmp-version="1" --with-sys-contact="aaa....@mycompany.com" --with-sys-location="France" --with-logfile="/var/log/snmpd.log" --with-persistent-directory="/var/net-snmp" --disable-static --libdir=/usr/lib 5th step: ====== I've set the PATH and MIBS environment variables as follows: export PATH:$PATH:/usr/bin export MIBS=ALL I've succeeded to start the snmpd daemon by entering the following command line: sudo snmpd -Lsd -Lf /dev/null -u phil -g phil -I -f By doing a ps -edf | grep snmpd; the process is running but not responding to a snmpwalk request. By typing snmpd -L -Dsystem. I got the following error Error opening specific endpoint "" and I haven't found what is the problem. According to my understanding, it's looks like the /usr/bin/etc/snmp/snmpd.conf file is not correctly configured. See attached the present configuration: rocommunity MyCom1 rwcommunity MyCom2 syscontact aaa....@mycompany.com syslocation France Could you please help me to fix this "endpoint" error ?
