Hi Jonny, Yes, I did the reboot. "getenforce" shows "disabled". The funny is that, issuing the start command it says "OK". Even in the logs: Apr 10 12:12:44 localhost snmpd: snmpd startup succeeded Apr 10 12:12:44 localhost snmpd[6673]: NET-SNMP version 5.1.2 But still, there is no process running... Any other tip? Thanks again. > Gustavo wrote: >> Hello All, >> >> Ive searched the arqchives, but didnt find anything like this..
