Package: snmpd Version: 5.4.1~dfsg-12 Severity: normal Tags: patch
I want to use snmp to remotely reboot machine. I have found advice to use exec/execfix pair to do this. Entry in snmpd.conf: ... exec reboot /usr/bin/uptime execFix reboot /root/bin/reboot And command: snmpset -v 2c -c secret host UCD-SNMP-MIB::extErrFix.1 i 1 This does not work - snmpd writes this error message to log: /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf: line 92: Error: No matching exec entry Problem is in source - "Fix" suffix is added to name of execFix directive and then it is searched for complementary exec entry. Attached is patch, that removes this suffix, when it is no longer needed. -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.26 Locale: LANG=cs_CZ.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=cs_CZ.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages snmpd depends on: ii libc6 2.9-4 GNU C Library: Shared libraries pn libsnmp5 <none> (no description available) pn libssl0.9.7 <none> (no description available) ii libwrap0 7.6.q-16 Wietse Venema's TCP wrappers libra snmpd recommends no packages. snmpd suggests no packages. -- Jezz mail: j...@hkfree.org jabber: j...@njs.netlab.cz
