snmpd swallowing my CPU

I've seen several posts from people with slow webmin problems. I'm having the same issue. I ran ps auwxf, it showed that the SNMPd daemon is using 80% of the CPU. Has anyone else seen this or better yet, solved this?

  • It turns out snmpd was not the TRUE source of the problem. The forums discussed qmail being a major culprit in the webmin slow down. There were a number of processes running under qmail. I restarted the service, it failed and terminated. I started qmail and it seemed to come up okay. The box has been runnnig for over a day and the snmp daemon hasn't runaway since restarting qmail. Thanks for your help.
