Dave:
thanks for your quick reply. I am running my application as root. I
would like to run it as a master agent or subagent. At this time it
does not really matter.
Here is what I am getting back:
Warning: no access control information configured.
It's unlikely this agent can serve any useful purpose in this state.
Run "snmpconf -g basic_setup" to help you configure the snmpAgent.conf file
for this agent.
Error opening specified endpoint ""
I am running the example-demon.c program. Looks like this:
.
.
.
//build tree and init values of variables in it
init_mibdata();
/* initialize vacm/usm access control */
if (!agentx_subagent) {
//init_vacm_vars();
//init_usmUser();
}
init_snmp("snmpAgent");
/* Let's become an snmp master agent */
if (!agentx_subagent)
init_master_agent(); /* open the port to listen on (defaults to udp:161) */
/* In case we recevie a request to stop (kill -TERM or kill -INT) */
keep_running = 1;
signal(SIGTERM, stop_server);
signal(SIGINT, stop_server);
snmp_log(LOG_INFO,"snmpAgentDemon is up and running.\n");
/* main loop */
while(keep_running) {
agent_check_and_process(0); /* 0 == don't block */
}
.
.
.
Thanks!
Yan~

How are you starting the agent?
In particular, who are you running the agent as?
That looks suspiciously like the errors produced when
you try to start things as a non-privileged user.
You typically need to start everything as root.
