NAME

ntpsnmpd - NTP SNMP MIB agent

SYNOPSIS

ntpsnmpd [-flag [value]]... [--opt-name [[=| ]value]]...

All arguments must be options.

DESCRIPTION

This manual page briefly documents the ntpsnmpd command. Its description is not documented.

OPTIONS

-n, --nofork

Do not fork.

-p, --syslog

Log to syslog().

--agentxsocket=string

The socket address ntpsnmpd uses to connect to net-snmpd. The default string for this option is:

unix:/var/agentx/master

[<transport-specifier>:]<transport-address> The default is the Unix Domain socket "unix:/var/agentx/master". Another common alternative is tcp:localhost:705.

-?, --help

Display extended usage information and exit.

-!, --more-help

Extended usage information passed thru pager.

-> [rcfile], --save-opts[=rcfile]

Save the option state to rcfile. The default is the last configuration file listed in the OPTION PRESETS section, below.

-< rcfile, --load-opts=rcfile, --no-load-opts

Load options from rcfile. The no-load-opts form will disable the loading of earlier RC/INI files. --no-load-opts is handled early, out of order.

- [{v|c|n}], --version[={v|c|n}]

Output version of program and exit. The default mode is `v', a simple version. The `c' mode will print copyright information and `n' will print the full copyright notice.

OPTION PRESETS

Any option that is not marked as not presettable may be preset by loading values from configuration ("RC" or ".INI") file(s) and values from environment variables named:

  NTPSNMPD_<option-name> or NTPSNMPD

The environmental presets take precedence (are processed later than) the configuration files. The homerc files are "$HOME", and ".". If any of these are directories, then the file .ntprc is searched for within those directories.
