Hi folks
I have an NMS and a Client machine. I want the client to send traps to the NMS.
I have been configuring the snmpd.conf file testing if i disable a process do i
receive an alert or not. For the changes to reflect that were made in the conf
file i restarted the snmpd daemon each time. The testing was going fine. All of
a sudden when i restarted snmpd i recieved the error msg "snmpd dead but subsys
locked". I googled for answer as to what it actually meant and found out that
when a service is started a logfile is created in the /var/lock/subsys.
Sometimes if the service is not stopped properly or whatever the logfile
remains created. Though i started/stopped the snmpd service properly it didnt
go away so i removed the file manually (via rm cmd). when i checked the status
the error "snmpd dead but subsys locked" was gone. On my NMS i recieved the
alert of snmpd coldstart. i started the snmpd service everything goes fine! BUT
after 5 mins again i recieve the same error message and
this keeps on happening..what do i need to do now?
