Does anyone in here run snmpd(8) from net-snmp on their FreeBSD servers? I ask, because snmpd(8) keeps getting to a point where it stops responding and has to be brutal killed and restarted. I get alarms in ZenOSS that snmpd(8) cannot be reached when this happens. This is not happening with snmpd(8) on my Linux servers, just FreeBSD unfortunately. It is also random. There is not a specific length of time when this happens.
For the record this is happening on 10.3-RELEASE installs as well. If anyone here knows a way to keep this daemon responding to snmp queries under FreeBSD instead of falling over randomly, hints and tips for that would be greatly appreciated.
