Have you read the relevant tutorial page on the project website? See http://www.net-snmp.org/wiki/index.php/TUT:snmptrap_SNMPv3 Note that SNMPv3 traps (as opposed to INFORMs) are probably the hardest thing to get right. I'd suggest you start with SNMPv3 informs, and only move on to traps once you've got informs working. > I understand that this has something to do with > "/var/net-snmp/snmptrapd.conf" > But Why is that file needed for a running Trap receiver ?? > Is it not possible to receive traps as a normal user on a > non-privileged port ?? It should be, yes. What are the permissions on this config file? Dave ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys. Earn Cash.
