Verified, this is again the problem with the read-only public view being system instead if .1 I have considered changing this in the snmpd.conf file we deliver, but i am very reluctant about it as it will offer much more information about a machine running snmpd by default than before. As there are multiple bugs open with that problem i tend to make this change despite the security concerns i have (after all, we're 'only' talking about read-only stuff.). Read ya, Phil *** Bug 88677 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** *** Bug 101083 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** *** Bug 110060 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** I'll close this bug now as after long consideration i will leave the config file in the secure but DoS-able state. The implications of opening up a default configuration so that all available information about a system can be gathered from any host is just too much of a security risk. If anyone wants or needs a responsive snmpd he can make the necessary and in this bugzilla descibed changes to the snmpd.conf file. Thanks, Read ya, Phil |
