Carl,

Net-SNMP on Linux systems by default has a rather worthless set of SNMP traps. 
You'll get warm/coldStart traps and interface up/down traps assuming the device 
is multi-homed. The same could be said for Windows systems.

Where the real value of SNMP traps would be if you have Dell or HP management 
agents installed (OpenManage or Insight Management Agent) which send some 
really great information as traps. Things like disk failures within an array, 
temperature alerts, etc.

If you don't have these extended management agents on your systems, SNMP traps 
from servers are of very limited value.
