Never mind.   My problem was I didn't run the master with -x xxx.xxx.xxx:705.  
I set up master=on in snmpd.conf, and saw the message from snmpd:
Turning on AgentX master support

and thought I was golden.  But I guess that only works for agents on the same 
machine.  So the default, '/var/agentx/master' only works locally???  So I 
guess you need the -x xxx.xxx.xxx:705 so the master can listen to the rest of 
the world.

Seems ok now.


Thanks,

Subject: agentx subagent talking to agent on another machine

I'm trying to arrange snmpd running as an AgentX subagent, and want it to 
register with a master agent on another machine. FAQ says I should be able to 
do this.

When I try this:

-f  -L -d -X -x 135.5.179.156

I get

Error: Failed to connect to the agentx master agent: Unknown host

Same with this:
-f  -L -d -X -x 135.5.179.156:705

When I try this:
-f  -L -d -X -x udp:135.5.179.156

UDP packets get sent, but ignored (of course).

My master agent is running ok.

What am I missing?  Perhaps some permission or config?

Thanks,

Phil Gillis
