Hi Marco,
Are there any news?

What is the point? Who installs snmpd to only use it locally?
snmpd might be installed by a dependency, e.g. by quagga.
I don't think so. quagga only suggests snmpd, so it cannot be installed
by mistake. The list of packages Recommending or Depending on snmpd is
very short and they look reasonable.
How did you come to conclude that more people install snmpd by mistake
than because they actually want to use it?
Daemons should be installed with the configuration which would be useful
for the largest number of users.

ciao,

I aggree that the bind to 127.0.0.1 can finally disappear in
/etc/default/net-snmp as this bind is now done in the sample snmpd.conf
shipped by upstream.
However, I still believe that there shouldn't be any unconfigured snmpd
deamons reachable from outside. You need to specify at least a basic set
of ACLs or even better some user name and sign / encryption password for
access of SNMP MIBs.
Thanks,
Jochen
