Hi Philip Since net-snmp at default configuration runs as user root its a Security Issue imho.
Well thats not the main Problem but a Changerequest (should I open a PR for this?) The main Reason im writing this is if I start snmpd with the user nobody (-u) f.e. it "seems" there are Permission Problems with some OID's. snmpd.log: Connection from UDP: [0.0.0.0]->[192.168.1.199]:-23573 Purging address from address cache: UDP: [0.0.0.0]->[10.0.254.6]:-242Received SNMP packet(s) from UDP: [0.0.0.0]->[192.168.1.199]:-23573 GET message -- HOST-RESOURCES-MIB::hrStorageUsed.1 kvm_openfiles: Permission denied kvm_openfiles: /dev/mem: Permission denied That snmpget Result: 502933 That Host has 2GB of Ram so its correct, so can I just ignore that error message? For that I have to launch snmpd with -r which I rather would not. Should I create a PR for this one too?
