Hi Rauwers,
did you restart the agent, it only reads these values at startup, I am sure
you will find the value will have changed after to restart the agent.
The agent gets the values from the snmpd.conf file, but as I said yesterday, any
new values you set in the system group do not get written to the snmpd.conf
file, they only stay in memory until the agent is recycled. It's a bug that has
been there for ages.
If you removed the -r paramater and still get a fail on writing a value, the it
is likely that you have a community string problem somewhere.
What's the error you get ?

: SOLUTION?
Well that dampner on the solution I discovered yesterday late.
I found out that the removal of the -r parameter did not have any effect.
So still not able to write.
I also found out that even if I change the f.i. sysLocation param in the
/etc/snmp/conf/snmpd.conf file the value still is "system administrators
office".
This brings me to the conclusion this the daemon gets the values somewhere
else.
I couldn't find out where.
So as far as I am concerned, I see no solution (yet).
