Using the dedicated directive worked.
Thanks for the reply. But the line I added "override sysObjectID.0
object_id 1.3.6.1.4.1.13699.10" to the /usr/local/share/snmp/snmpd.conf
file is a directive based on what I read from the
SETTING SYSTEM INFORMATION section of the man pages of snmpd.conf.
That's fair enough - it should have worked. I don't know why
it didn't. That's one of Wes' babies.....
But "override" is a general purpose directive, intended to configure
the value associated with an arbitrary OID. The "sysobjectid"
directive is specifically designed for setting the sysObjectID value.
Given that the general-purpose mechanism failed, I thought it might
be worth trying the dedicated one.
I presume you're mostly concerned with getting sysObjectID to have
the desired value, and you don't really care how!
