snmp on linux
hello,

I use this command:

snmpwalk -c public -v2c zeus
Timeout: No Response from zeus

I then installed net-snmp on zeus. however, this has not changed the situation:

snmpwalk -c public -v2c zeus
Timeout: No Response from zeus

any idea please on how to make the linux server answers the snmp query?

thanks

Hello,
make sure that:
1- You can ping zeus or that you can resolve that name.
2- The snmp service is running on zeus (netstat -uap)
Regards.

hi,

yes the server is pingable

and netstat -uap shows
udp 0 0 *:snmp *:*


I installed rpm also:
net-snmp-debuginfo-5.4.1-1.fc6.i386.rpm
net-snmp-devel-5.4.1-1.fc6.i386.rpm
net-snmp-perlmods-5.4.1-1.fc6.i386.rpm
net-snmp-5.4.1-1.fc6.i386.rpm

But the snmpwalk still does not work

snmpwalk -c public -v2c zeus
Timeout: No Response from zeus

thanks in advance for any hint.

mmmm...
What about the SNMP version the server uses? You are connecting using v1, and the server might be using v2 or v3...

Need to configure the snmpd to honor client requests from external locations, configure community strings, snmp version, etc....
Try man snmpconf if you want to generate a quick and dirty config.
