snmp monitoring

Hi,

I'm looking at the snmp monitoring in cyrus, and have some problems 
setting it up.  I've folled the folling path:

installed libsnmp5, libsnmp5-dev, libsensors-dev from Debian Sarge
installed snmpd from Debian Sarge

I've compiled my cyrus with:
./configure  \
         --with-cyrus-prefix=/usr/cyrus-${VERSION}  \
         --prefix=/usr/cyrus-${VERSION}   \
         --with-bdb-libdir=/usr/lib/  \
         --with-ldap=/usr  \
         --with-openssl=/usr  \
         --with-com_err=/usr  \
         --with-bdb-incdir=/usr/include  \
         --enable-replication  \
         --with-mboxlist-db=skiplist  \
         --with-seen-db=skiplist \
         --with-snmp=/usr

The compilation worked and cyrus starts withouth a problem.  I 
configured snmpd:

andes:/usr/local/src/cyrus-imapd-2.3.7# cat /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf
syslocation "Sterre, S9, serverlokaal 3"
syscontact systemen at ugent.be
rwcommunity public

snmpd is started with:
  /usr/sbin/snmpd -Lsd -Lf /dev/null -x /var/run/snmpd.pid

I start the cyrus master process with the extra option
-x var/run/snmpd.pid

On an other machine I can do
snmpwalk -Os -c public -v 1 mail3.private.ugent.be

And it shows me some info, but no specific cyrus info that is coming 
from the cyrus mib.

I've then add the cyrus mib file to /usr/share/snmp/mib/ and restarted 
snmpd, but that didn't help.

I can't kill my master proccess too.  When starting it with -D I get
andes:/usr/local/src/cyrus-imapd-2.3.7#  /usr/cyrus/bin/master -D -M 
/mail/mail3/etc/cyrus.conf -C /mail/mail3/etc/imapd.conf -p 
/var/run/cyrus-master-mail3.pid -x /var/run/snmpd.pid
No log handling enabled - turning on stderr logging
read_config_store open failure on /var/lib/snmp/cyrusMaster.conf
read_config_store open failure on /var/lib/snmp/cyrusMaster.conf
read_config_store open failure on /var/lib/snmp/cyrusMaster.conf

on typing control-c, but it doesn't die.  kill -9 only helps...

I would appreciate some help.

Thank you in advance,

Rudy
