net-snmp and process monitoring

[Mike McGrath]

In case anyone else is running into this issue, It's a conflict with
selinux.  I'll try to figure out what policy will fix this and post it
later.

Subject: net-snmp and process monitoring

 

I'm trying to use net-snmp to do process monitoring.  For example on a
machine with a non FC3 net-snmp implementation I have in my snmpd.conf
file:

 

proc httpd

 

when I do an snmpwalk I get:

 

.iso.org.dod.internet.private.enterprises.ucdavis.prTable.prEntry.prInde
x.1 = INTEGER: 1

.iso.org.dod.internet.private.enterprises.ucdavis.prTable.prEntry.prName
s.1 = STRING: httpd

.iso.org.dod.internet.private.enterprises.ucdavis.prTable.prEntry.prMin.
1 = INTEGER: 0

.iso.org.dod.internet.private.enterprises.ucdavis.prTable.prEntry.prMax.
1 = INTEGER: 0

.iso.org.dod.internet.private.enterprises.ucdavis.prTable.prEntry.prCoun
t.1 = INTEGER: 11

.iso.org.dod.internet.private.enterprises.ucdavis.prTable.prEntry.prErro
rFlag.1 = INTEGER: 0

.iso.org.dod.internet.private.enterprises.ucdavis.prTable.prEntry.prErrM
essage.1 = STRING:

.iso.org.dod.internet.private.enterprises.ucdavis.prTable.prEntry.prErrF
ix.1 = INTEGER: 0

.iso.org.dod.internet.private.enterprises.ucdavis.prTable.prEntry.prErrF
ixCmd.1 = STRING:

 

Indicating that the process is running (not there's no error message or
flag)

 

However on a FC3 machine when I use the same config and same walk here's
the output

 

.iso.org.dod.internet.private.enterprises.ucdavis.prTable.prEntry.prInde
x.1 = INTEGER: 1

.iso.org.dod.internet.private.enterprises.ucdavis.prTable.prEntry.prName
s.1 = STRING: httpd

.iso.org.dod.internet.private.enterprises.ucdavis.prTable.prEntry.prMin.
1 = INTEGER: 0

.iso.org.dod.internet.private.enterprises.ucdavis.prTable.prEntry.prMax.
1 = INTEGER: 0

.iso.org.dod.internet.private.enterprises.ucdavis.prTable.prEntry.prCoun
t.1 = INTEGER: 0

.iso.org.dod.internet.private.enterprises.ucdavis.prTable.prEntry.prErro
rFlag.1 = INTEGER: 1

.iso.org.dod.internet.private.enterprises.ucdavis.prTable.prEntry.prErrM
essage.1 = STRING: No httpd process running.

.iso.org.dod.internet.private.enterprises.ucdavis.prTable.prEntry.prErrF
ix.1 = INTEGER: 0

.iso.org.dod.internet.private.enterprises.ucdavis.prTable.prEntry.prErrF
ixCmd.1 = STRING:

 

Even though httpd is running.  Any ideas whats going on?
