netsnmpd.lrp (4.2.1-1-CS) from DCD v1.0.2 appears to be broken.
[1] Changes to /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf do *not* affect snmpd.
Specifically, modifying syscontact and syslocation are *not* accessible
via snmpget nor snmpwalk, &c.
[2] Such (example) changes can be effected if snmpd is started with
args: -c /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf
[3] If arg -c is used, then snmpwalk will not end gracefully; rather:
# snmpwalk -v 1 localhost public system
system.sysDescr.0 = Linux trout 2.2.19-3-LEAF-RAID #4 Sat Dec 1
17:27:59 CST 2001 i486
. . .
system.sysORTable.sysOREntry.sysORUpTime.9 = Timeticks: (5) 0:00:00.05
Timeout: No Response from localhost
[4] In fact, no matter how the default startup is used, any community
string has access to snmpd -- public, private or *none*!
[5] Several attributes allowed here:
<http://net-snmp.sourceforge.net/man/snmpd.conf.html>
like this:
sysname STRING
*fail* on startup (using -c):
# /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf: line 101: Warning: Unknown token: sysname.
What do you think?

Dare to fix things before they break . . .
Our capacity for understanding is inversely proportional to how much we
think we know. The more I know, the more I know I don't know . . .
