I found out that it somehow does not care about the file-statement but
uses this
 
(1)root@sbe0076 458# ls -l /usr/tmp/snmpdv3.log
-rw-r--r-- 1 root system 8522 Mar 05 14:17
/usr/tmp/snmpdv3.log
 
for logging
 
maybe you got a link there that I dont have?

        Works fine here. We'll assume all the rights/permissions things
are OK. Are you sure SNMP requests are getting there so it has
something to log? Try cranking up you logging level and see if it
generates anything. Make sure you are not starting snmpd with the -f
and pointing your log somewhere else. Good Luck

                Hello,

                on my 5.2 systems the smnpd-daemon doesnt log anything.
On all 5.1/4.x systems it does.

                Configuration (/etc/snmpd.conf) is default;

                logging file=/usr/tmp/snmpd.log enabled
                logging size=0 level=0

                but /usr/tmp/snmpd.log does not even exist. Touching it
and restarting snmpd doesnt help - file stays at size 0.

                Could you confirm this?

                Regards,

                Holger
