[sentinix-list] SNMP

[James Nelson]

I'm new to Sentinix, but thats ok. I'm having trouble configuring a
new community name for snmp. I am not using the snmp daemon. (not
installed during setup) However I am still getting alerts through
snort that my Sentinix box is configured for the "public" community in
SNMP. I cannot find the snmp.conf file either. Anyone have any
advice for a newbie?

Do you have NET-SNMP installed?
What service are you trying to check?
You can't check a service without a plugin.


Need more info I can help

Thanks for the reply. First I installed Sentinex with the SNMP
daemon, and started getting alerts through Snort about the 'public'
community coming from my Sentinex box. I admit I am a newer Linux
user, but this is strange. I run setup and get rid of the SNMP
daemon. I still get the alerts from the Sentinex box saying its using
the public community. How do I change the community name?

Forgive the ignorance

James
