Alle, The man page for snmptrapd (CentOS5.2/net-snmp-5.3.1-24.el5_2.1) *shows* the -A option (to append the output to file) is still valid, but it is not. snmptrapd -h omits the option and doesn't show an alternate flag. The option is still valid for snmpd. /etc/snmp/snmptrapd.options looks like this: OPTIONS="-A -Lf /var/log/snmptrapd.log -p /var/run/snmptrapd.pid" Does anyone know if this option is still available?
