Re: running agentx sub-agent as non root
Thanks Dave. It seems the functionality of init_agent API has been changed significantly from 5.2 to 5.3. I was using the agentXPerms but that was not being taken in consideration in 5.2.x but is taken care in 5.3.x. So, it resolves my problem. -Sachin On Thu, 2006-03-02 at 22:22, Dave Shield wrote: > On Thu, 2006-03-02 at 17:23 +0530, Sachin Mishra wrote: > > Isn't there > > a way to specify it in the config so that I can make [/var/agentx/master] > > work as a non-root user. > > See 'agentXPerms' in snmpd.conf(5) > > I believe this is only documented in the most recent release (5.3), > but it should work in earlier versions as well. > > Dave > --- This SF.Net email is sponsored by xPML, a groundbreaking scripting language that extends applications into web and mobile media.

See 'agentXPerms' in snmpd.conf(5) I believe this is only documented in the most recent release (5.3), but it should work in earlier versions as well.

running agentx sub-agent as non root
I am having problem running agentx subagent as a non-root user. I went through some earlier discussion on this in the mailing list where we talk about tweaking the permission of /var/agentx/master. Isn't there a way to specify it in the config so that I can make it work as a non-root user. I tried by giving the -x option while running snmpd. In this case, how to make sub-agent aware of the port where master is running. It seems that init_agent call by default takes a fixed value for port of master agent and it can't be changed using configuration.
