snmptraphandling.py

[Giles Coochey]

Is anyone using Francois Meehan's snmptraphandling.py script?

There's a part of the script where it opens the Nagios.cmd file. I'm not
a python coder, but it appears to me that it writes to the file with 'w'
which would overwrite any pending commands that Nagios has not yet
processed:

        #print mondata_res
        output = open('/opt/nagios/var/rw/nagios.cmd', 'w')
        results = "[" + mytime + "] " + "PROCESS_SERVICE_CHECK_RESULT;"
\
          + host + ";" + "TRAP-" + service_suffix + ";" \
          + return_code + ";" + mondata_res + "\n"
        output.write(results)

I'm thinking that this script should be opening the file with the 'a'
(Append) mode, so that unprocessed commands in nagios.cmd do not get
overwritten.

I do appear to be missing some traps within Nagios, I can see them as
far as snmptt, but it seems either sec.pl or snmptraphandling.py somehow
doesn't process them and the trap doesn't make it as far as Nagios.
