RH72 with ucd-snmp v4.2.3-1.7.2.3

I installed ucd-snmp plus ucd-snmp-utils, set up my snmpd.conf and started
the snmpd.  Tested it with a few things like snmpwalk and snmpget and
snmptranslate, all worked fine.  Then when I tried to do an snmpset I got an
error.  Here the call:

  snmpset <system name> <rw community> sysContact.0 s <an email address>

I get an error like:

  Error in packer.
  Reason: (noSuchName) There is no such variable name in this MIB.

I can do a get like:

  snmpget <system name> <rw community> sysContact.0 

which returns:

system.sysContact.0 = <email address as defined in config>


Anyone know or understand what this means?

Well it seems that if you set the variable syscontact in the /etc/snmpd.conf
file it locks it in at ro.  Even though, an snmptranslate call lists it as
MAX ACCESS READ-WRITE.  If you remove that from the config file it becomes
rw able.  This seems like strange behavior that might not be correct.  Like
a bud!
