Is that as simple as changing this:
extend nginx /usr/local/etc/snmp/nginx-python3.py
to
extend nginx sudo /usr/local/etc/snmp/nginx-python3.py
If so, this is easier than I thought.
So far, it's only been some permissions, groups, etc.
I use net-snmp on my hosts. I prefer to run things as non-root when I can. I recently switched all my snmpd instances to run as non-root (made easier by recent work on the package).
Since then, a few modules have ceased to work. I'm creating this ticket so we can keep track of progress.
So far, it's:
bind
- invokes: system("echo $rndc stats | su -fm bind")dhcp.py
- solution: addsnmpd
user todhcpd
group so it can read/usr/local/etc/dhcpd.conf
mysql
