Hi, Joan,
I just tried it and it didn't work... what's the version of net-snmp you used?
On Linux tried:
kill -1 <pid>
kill -SIGHUP <pid>
kill -s SIGHUP <pid>
kill -s 1 <pid>
kill -hup <pid>
Thanks,
Feng

kill -hup pid, where pid = the snmpd process id.
worked when I tried it.

Hi,
This is Feng. I am poking net-snmp software 5.4 on x86 Linux (ubuntu 7.4) and
trying to see how it can reloads the new configuration (such as the updated
community string). Googled some articles, I thought SIGHUP signal needs to be
sent to snmpd process. I also took a look at the code and it seems that on
Linux it installs the signal handler for SIGHUP to set a reconfig flag. But for
me, snmpd always simply died after I "kill -s SIGHUP <snmpd_pid>".
Snmpd was started with the following command line options:
"
-u 0 -Ls5 -Lf /dev/null -p <PID_FILE_FULL_PATH> -c <SNMP_CONFIG_FILE_FULL_PATH>
-M <MIB_DIRS>"
"
Thanks for any feedback here.
Feng
