I'm having problems with snmptrapfmt/snmpd. I'm not getting any log output in /var/log/snmptrapfmt.log. My router should be sending snmp traps/logs to my computer. Below is the /var/tmp/snmptrapfmt.trc as a result of adding "-d 1" to snmptrapfmt.
I used to use trapmon (which uses snmptrapd), but that doesn't seem to work any more. Is there a way to test snmptrapfmt? There seems to be an "snmptrap" command, but, no matter how I invoke it, I cannot get any log output in /var/log. I'm running Debian stable. Thanks for any help. ----------------- snmptrapfmt.trc ---------------------- 20060908.023939 (snmptrapfmt-16963): Starting ... 20060908.023939 (snmptrapfmt-16963): Parsing config file '/etc/snmp/snmptrapfmt.conf' 20060908.023939 (snmptrapfmt-16963): Read line '# ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- ' 20060908.023939 (snmptrapfmt-16963): Read line '# Configuration file for snmptrapfmt-1.0 ' 20060908.023939 (snmptrapfmt-16963): Read line '# ' 20060908.023939 (snmptrapfmt-16963): Read line '# Comment lines start with the character '#' ' 20060908.023939 (snmptrapfmt-16963): Read line '# Blank lines are ignored ' 20060908.023939 (snmptrapfmt-16963): Read line '# ' 20060908.023939 (snmptrapfmt-16963): Read line '# In order to configure the log output, use the following keywords.
