Running snmpconf I chose "nobody" as the user to run the snmpd as. What are the ramifications for doing so? Does this put limitations on the ability to read system process tables? My archetectures will be: Solaris 2.8, Suse SLES 8 and perhaps even Tru64 5.1b.
Certainly I could see how you could not check file sizes of a file owned by !nobody :-). Is running snmpd as root inherently non-secure and strongly unadvised?
