Dave:
i remember i should not send emails to private person after i sent
the following to you only. I am sending it again to everyone.

Dave:
thank you very much for replying my question.
I did 2 things to fix the problem (by the way, my snmp agent named
darRecorder
(not snmpd) was running on RH linux)
1. copying my agent configuration file to
/usr/local/etc/snmp/darRecorder.conf.
(i did this because debug messages of my agent complained about the
file missing.
/usr/local is the install directory of my net-snmp-5.2.1 binaries.
Now i understand the conf file should be named as the name of agent,
not always a string of 'snmpd.conf'.)
2. issuing "snmpget -v 2c -c private localhost darDeviceType.0" (instead of
"-c public")
Although i do not fully understand why the 2 changes made it working, i
can continue the rest of my agent tasks.
Thanks again, your help has guided me to the right direction on debugging
the problem (like whether it's access control or specific agent problem)
and i do appreciate you volunteer on providing help to net-snmp users.

Can you retrieve *anything* from the agent?
Try:
snmpget .... sysName.0
snmpget .... ifNumber.0
snmpgetnext ... ifTable
snmpget .... versionIdent.0
That should indicate whether the problem is general
access control, or specific to your new MIB.
If you can't retrieve any of these values, then please
see the FAQ entries about access control.
If you can see 'sysName', but none of the others,
then see the FAQ entry:
I can see the system group, but nothing else. Why?
If you can see all of these (but not your new MIB),
then see the checklist in the FAQ entry:
I've added my code to this template and it still
doesn't work. Why not?
