This is fixed in the latest snmpd. The problem is, snmpd reports *all* errors to syslog, because of /etc/defaults/snmpd. To log only up to info level, and not debug, change these to lines as follows:
SNMPDOPTS='-LS6d -Lf /dev/null -u snmp -g snmp -I -smux -p /var/run/snmpd.pid' TRAPDOPTS='-LS6d -p /var/run/snmptrapd.pid' going from -Lsd to -LS6d lowers the debug level sent to syslog. Refer to Logging Options section in snmpcmd manpage for more information. -chris zubrzycki - -- PGP public key: http://homepage.mac.com/beren/publickey.txt ID: 0xA2ABC070 Fingerprint: 26B0 BA6B A409 FA83 42B3 1688 FBF9 8232 A2AB C070 _________________________________________________ This message is encoded using the Rot-26 encoding method.
