Thanks for the correction. The following are what found.

TV>> I did not compile/configure the other four Solaris systems so I do not have any information. I did, however, compiled net-snmp5.0.10.1 on the testbed myself. I only specified the general configure "./configure" with no other option. Base on your question/response, I think you've pointed out my novice mistake. Are there workarounds for novice mistake like this or when you're working in an environment where installation of third-party software is very strict (adding files and modifying config files are allowed, but installation of new software is restricted)? I followed the instruction from README.solaris to add a net-snmp daemon executing HOST-RESOURCES-MIB (1.3.6.1.2.1.25) subtree and performed MIBS=+HOST-RESOURCES-MIB, but I guess this is not good enough. Any suggestion is greatly appreciated.

You thought wrong:
$ snmptranslate -On -IR mib-2
.1.3.6.1.2.1
]$ snmptranslate -Of .1.3.6.1.2.1.1
.iso.org.dod.internet.mgmt.mib-2.system

Good.

In which case, it looks as if the version of the Net-SNMP agent
that you're working with doesn't include Host Resources support.
Which would tend to explain why you can't get it working :-)
Either that, or the access control doesn't allow you access to it
(which would have the same general effect).
What *can* you see on the Net-SNMP agent?
If you do a full walk on .1, what general groups are returned?
(You don't need to list the full output - just indicate the first
entry in each related group. Such groups tend to share a common
prefix, so look for where this prefix changes).

The Net-SNMP agent needs to include the Host Resources support
when it's first compiled[1]. Did you compile the agent yourself?
If so, what "configure" line did you use?
If you're using a pre-compiled version, where did you obtain
this from?

[1] Please - can people not muddy the waters by talking about
dynamic loading just yet. I'm trying to keep things as
simple as possible for now.
