How do I configure snmpd agent on sco ?
what are the main files?
I can get my snmpd server to work on all my HPUX servers but just need s little help with sco.
Thanks
Richard
 
Richard,

It depends on what SCO Unix OS your
working with. Caldera has both SCO OpenServer
and UnixWare. The snmpd config files for
UnixWare are:

snmpd uses the following configuration files:
/etc/netmgt/snmpd.conf
Initializes elements in the system group.
/etc/netmgt/snmpd.comm
/etc/netmgt/snmpd.trap
Initialize the lists of systems and communities that will be
allowed to access the Management Information Base on the local
system.
/etc/netmgt/snmpd.peers
Authenticates open requests from potential SMUX peers.

Refer to manual page section 4snmp for more information on these
files.

This is how I did it with Openserver 5.0.5
/etc/snmpd.conf
/etc/snmpd.comm
/etc/snmpd.peers
/etc/snmpd.trap

in snmpd.comm you should write the community along with it's rights (READ). The example in the file explains this very well. Do not use the public community since it's such a security-hole.

in snmpd.conf you normally won't have to do anything.
look at it to see what it do though.

in smpd.trap you should insert the ip that's receiving traps, on what community it does that and which port you want it to use.
for instance...
public 192.168.0.10 162

snmpd.peers is used for configuring SMUX-peers. I've left this alone.

you can find more information using man snmpd, man snmpd.conf, snmpd.peers and so on.

also make sure you have the snmpd process running... /Sören
