The config file we want is the generated snmpd.conf file. Note that user "root" should have group "root" - "public" is what you want for the rocommunity (read-only). Thanks for the screenshot. Note that snmpd backgrounds by default, so see if you still have an snmpd running: # ps h -eo pid,args | grep snmpd If there is any output to that, then # kill [pid] ...replacing [pid] with the number in the first column. Now do this: # snmpd -Le -f -Dread_config This will run the agent in the foregrouns and log all errors to the console. That's a start - let's see how far that gets you.
