I was wondering if anybody could offer a clue what the following might
be a result of...

Our mail server just ran out of space this morning, turns out the
/var/log/snmpd.log was over 3 gigs, filled with the following kvm_read
errors (see below).

Just last Sunday I upgraded the system from 2.2.7 to 3.2, and didn't
bother upgrading many of the binaries from a.out -> elf.  I think this
might be part of the problem... the snmpd is still a.out.

Plus, I'd like to add to an FAQ somewhere the following tidbit that came
up with migrating some 2.x systems to 3.x.  By default the libdes*
libraries aren't put in /usr/lib/compat/aout (for export reasons, I'm
sure).  But this breaks anything that does authentication like Samba,
imapd, ipop3d, etc.  Copying the a.out libraries from a 2.x system,
fixing the symlinks, and running ldconfig -aout <dirs> does the trick.

Thanks for any suggestions!

Steve
