how to configure snmpd.conf

[jay_kumar]

i have a CentOS 4.2 server. I want to monitor disk usage , cpu usage, memory etc remotely. WHAT CHANGES DO I MAKE. even an example would do.

the default configuration of the snmpd.conf gives me follwoing output when quried remotely/locally (that means snmp is running and i have correctly configure the firewall!!)

So how i go about changing snmpd.conf to get other aforesaid details and more.

I have already used snmpconf to cofigure snmpd.conf but still if you go through the snmpwalk output i am not getting much of the details. what am i doing wrong. can you send me some sample conf file to monitor most of the system statistics

thanks in advance

Hi

try with this very simple snmpd.conf :

Code: Select all

rocommunity public
includeAllDisks

and then restart your SNMP agent.
