Can AIX Native SNMPD Daemon Be Used In Conjuntion With a NET-SNMP Built Subagents?

2008-02-01 Thread Smith_Randy
Hello, Thanks again for your previous responses to previous emails. Anyhoo, I noticed that README.solaris documentation indicated that net-snmp subagent built on the net-snmp libraries can be used in conjunction with the Solaris SNMPDX daemon - and that's wonderful since we don't have to

Hee-hee. Thanks Dave, will keep that in mind. Dave, as I re-read the README.solaris doc I realized that maybe I misread and that in fact the net-snmpd 'snmpd' daemon still has to run along side of the Solaris native 'snmpdx' for a net-snmp subagent to run? In other words, in part 7 of
