Hello,

Thanks for reporting. In the future, please don't attach tarballs, it makes our job harder...

I have a few questions:
1) Why are you creating a snmptt user/group? It doesn't seem to be necessary.
2) Why do you have a conf.d file? The pid can go straight in init.d, it's not a variable most users will want to configure.
3) Are you sure about forcing daemon_fork = 0? It could cause problems during startup (for gensplash users, for example)

Thanks i'm know about this. But at 09-2005 i'm don't know ;)

snmp-tt in daemon mode can switch to unpriv user.

Fix this.

Hmmm? I'm don't understand. I'm switch snmptt in daemon mode.

I just bumped snmptt to 1.1.
- I added a sed line to set mode=daemon
- I added your init script

I'm not too fond of the other modifications and would rather keep things as they are.

Thanks for your time!
