Hello, have a problem with SNMP, was wondering if any had a similar problem or just knows the solution.
I had set up the snmp daemon before on fedora 10 and CentOS. I have arch linux on my laptop ( i love arch for my personal distro outside of work, but am still kinda noob at it. as I became an Arch user about a month ago)
Any help from more experienced linux users would be greatly appreciated.
So anyways, I installed net-snmp and its dependencies via arch's package management tool; Pacman -S net-snmp. I ran snmpconf -r none -g basic_setup and followed the directions (like i have in the past) at
http://net-snmp.sourceforge.net/tutoria … snmpd.html
but when I try:
snmpwalk -v 1 -c public localhost ..i get the following response: 'Timeout: No Response from localhost'
I have snmpd running, and checked via ps ax | grep snmp.
Code:
woonasty ~ $ snmpd -Dread_config -H 2>&1 | grep "config path" | sort -u
read_config: config path used for agentx:/etc/snmp:/usr/share/snmp:/usr/lib/snmp:/home/woonasty/.snmp (persistent path:/var/net-snmp)
read_config: config path used for agentx:/var/net-snmp (persistent path:/var/net-snmp)
read_config: config path used for snmp:/etc/snmp:/usr/share/snmp:/usr/lib/snmp:/home/woonasty/.snmp (persistent path:/var/net-snmp)
read_config: config path used for snmp:/var/net-snmp (persistent path:/var/net-snmp)
read_config: config path used for snmpd:/etc/snmp:/usr/share/snmp:/usr/lib/snmp:/home/woonasty/.snmp (persistent path:/var/net-snmp)
read_config: config path used for snmpd:/var/net-snmp (persistent path:/var/net-snmp)
running snmpd -Dread_config -H 2>&1 | grep "Reading" | sort -u ..gave me this:
Code:
woonasty /etc/snmp $ snmpd -Dread_config -H 2>&1 | grep "Reading" | sort -u
read_config: Reading configuration /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf
/etc/hosts.allow is empty
/etc/hosts.deny is empty
and i did a iptables -F
also for the /etc/hosts file I have:
Code:
woonasty /etc $ uname -a
Linux darkstar 2.6.29-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT Wed May 20 07:06:02 UTC 2009 i686 Intel(R) Pentium(R) M processor 1.50GHz GenuineIntel GNU/Linux
woonasty /etc $ cat /etc/hosts
#
# /etc/hosts: static lookup table for host names
#
#<ip-address> <hostname.domain.org> <hostname>
127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost darkstar
# End of file
woonasty /etc $
Once again, any help is greatly greatly greatly appreciated and will be remembered, Thanks all for your time!
-woo-
