Hi folks!

I have a problem with net-SNMP in my Linux machine. My kernel version is 2.4.21. I've installed net-SNMP 5.1.3 and used snmptrapd to catch the traps sent to me. I've written the following line in my snmptrapd.conf:

traphandle default /usr/test

The test program just says "Hello World" and ends. It was compiled using gcc. When a trap comes to my machine I should see my test program running but it does not work.
Previously I have done the same thing on a windows server (with a net-snmp version suitable for windows, of course) and it works perfectly. Now I have to do it on Linux and, surprisingly for me (given that net-snmp is mainly for Linux), it does not work.
Could somebody help?

Thanks in advance

Haven't played with this at all but just did "man snmpd.conf" on my RH AS 3.0 box and saw no mention of "traphandle" there. It sounds as if this is a configuration option for your Windows box but not on RH AS 3.0. Perhaps a read of this man page will lead you to what you're trying to do.
