I am trying to walk the mib of an agent that I can produce,
under RH 9, using Net-SNMP 5.0.9, and as configured and
installed per the product documentation; i.e. INSTALL.
I run the daemon using the command
snmpd -C -d -D -l -V
and then use snmpwalk in this form
apps/snmpwalk
I obtain the following output from snmpwalk,
as shown in between the excerpt delimiters:
(I have included output of a few
other commands, just to assure context)

Does anyone have suggestions as to why I am observing
this annoying output?
The documentation for snmpd.conf clearly states that
the file is not needed in order for the agent to operate,
and to respond to requests. From the man pages, we have
This file is not required for
the agent to operate and
respond to requests.
So, I expect that I should be able to walk the daemon.
Further, I used a MIB browser (from iReasoning), and there
I get timeouts on get requests. I know that Net-SNMP
documentation usually points to a missing configuration
for access control, yet the request is so simple that I
believe it ought to work.
