Thanks Dave,

It really can help....
But when I run the set command I get:
Error in packet.
Reason: notWritable (That object does not support modification)
Failed object: NET-SNMP-EXTEND-MIB::nsExtendArgs."PS"

I'm using version 5.2.1.2-4 on debian.

My snmpd.conf:
extend PS              /bin/ps

I run:
snmpset -v3 ... hostname .1.3.6.1.4.1.8072.1.3.2.2.1.3.2.80.83 s "-ef"



should I add anything more? ( I've tried all the security options that
snmpd.conf offers , including the override option )

--David
