[Pkg-net-snmp-devel] Bug#507452: snmpd stops responding to remote requests after a random amount of time

[Christian Herzog]

Package: snmpd
Version: 5.4.1~dfsg-11
Severity: important

after a random amount of time (hours to a few days), snmpd stops responding
to remote requests. Local requests continue to work. A restart of snmpd does
not solve the problem, only a reboot does. In the log file, requests are
being logged, they're just not being answered. A tcpdump confirms this.
This is in a Xen dom0 on AMD64.
