           Summary: incorrect logging option in snmptrapd initiscript
    Classification: openSUSE
           Product: openSUSE 11.4
           Version: Final
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW

User-Agent:       Opera/9.80 (X11; Linux i686; U; en) Presto/2.9.168
Version/11.50

/usr/share/doc/packages/net-snmp/rc.snmptrapd uses the following to specify
logging :
-Lf ${SNMPD_LOGLEVEL:-d}

/etc/sysconfig/net-snmp specifies default SNMPD_LOGLEVEL as "n". this results
in snmptrapd logging in a file "/n" (it also creates a device file at
/var/log/net-snmp.log).

as per 'man snmpcmd', "-Lf FILE   Log messages to the specified file."
"There  are  also "upper case" versions of each of these options, which allow
the corresponding logging mechanism to be restricted to certain priorities of
message."

thus the solution is to change "-Lf" in
/usr/share/doc/packages/net-snmp/rc.snmptrapd to -LF

/etc/init.d/snmpd is already using the correct version.

same problem also with opensuse 11.3, if anybody wants to fix it there as well

Reproducible: Always
