Author How to turn off SNMP & change the default credential - Newbie question

I have a Solaris 8 server and a small cyclade running linux. There's
no "snmp" processes running at either server. We are getting report
that the SNMP is set to default credential. Any idea how we can disble
the SNMP entirely and/or change the credentials to non-default ?

Thanks,

Bill,

On my solaris 8 systems, I do

cd /etc/rc3.d
mv S76snmpdx dontS76snmpdx
mv S77dmi dontS77dmi
mv S80mipagent dontS80mipagent

That will prevent them starting on reboot.

If you don't want to reboot, you can stop them with

./dontS80mipagent stop
./dontS77dmi stop
./dontS76snmpdx stop
