Description Darren Gamble 2002-04-15 16:57:52 UTC
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.5; Windows NT 5.0)

Description of problem:
"/etc/init.d/snmp reload" stops and starts the snmp agent instead of sending a 
HUP.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Run /etc/init.d/snmp reload
	

Actual Results:  The service is stopped, and then started.

Expected Results:  The service should have been sent a Hangup.

e.g.
/usr/bin/killall -HUP snmpd

Additional info:

A one-liner change, but important for network monitoring as a full restart 
resets a lot of information.

Sounds like a good idea. Might not make it in the upcoming release anymore, but
i'll add this and the package will appear in rawhide.

Read ya, Phil

Comment 2 Phil Knirsch 2002-04-17 13:00:52 UTC
OK, current fixed package is building in rawhide.

Read ya, Phil

Comment 3 Darren Gamble 2002-04-19 17:19:47 UTC
Heya... it's been a couple of days, but, no package.  Let's just wait until the 
package is available and can be tested before this is marked completed.

Comment 4 Phil Knirsch 2002-04-22 14:47:07 UTC
Hmm, strange.

It should appear real soon though... :-)

Read ya, Phil



Comment 5 Phil Knirsch 2002-05-27 11:49:51 UTC
OK, it's definitely fixed in Red Hat 7.3, which has been available for some time
now.

Thanks,

Read ya, Phil

Comment 6 Darren Gamble 2002-05-28 14:03:00 UTC
The 7.3 release version isn't usable (we've had to drop back to an earlier 
version on our 7.3 machines).  Sorry.  See bug #63770 .  When a suitable ucd-
snmp version is released, then please close this bug.

Comment 7 Phil Knirsch 2002-06-04 14:38:13 UTC
Dang. I had the fix in, it just somehow somewhere disappearded again.

I am currently doing a Red Hat Linux 7.x errata anyway, so go and check
http://www.redhat.com/errata, it should appear there real soon.

I'll close the bug as soon as the errata has been released.

Read ya, Phil

Comment 8 Phil Knirsch 2002-06-25 16:03:27 UTC
OK, errata has been released today, and that really fixes the problem.
