Chet,

Thanks for the links.  Do you know the roadmap/timeline to NetSNMP
being released into production?

Thanks,

Noah

Noah,

There is a good tutorial for snmpd.conf at:
http://net-snmp.sourceforge.net/tutorial/tutorial-5/demon/snmpd.html

The actual reference is:
http://net-snmp.sourceforge.net/docs/man/snmpd.conf.html

The current SVN trunk version of Zenoss has recently been switched
from the PySNMP bindings to using NetSNMP. This will allow easy
integration of SNMPv3 support in the future.
