Net-Snmp

[Bill]

Hello All,

I have been trying to install net-snmp and get it working with either 
cacti or mrtg.

Using snmpwalk or snmpget I am having some problems. I have also checked 
this issue using a windows MIB browser named OidView only because it 
shows everything going on with snmp remotely.

The issue is I can not for whatever reason get the IF-MIB to answer with 
anything at all! I have dowloaded with apt-get the MIB downloader and 
downloaded all the MIBS . They are in /usr/share/mibs/netsnmp, 
/usr/share/iana, and /usr/share/inetf. The last two dir are symlinks. I 
even copied the MIBS from inetf to the netsnmp dir just to make sure 
they could be seen.

The snmp.conf file has the one line about loading MIBS commented out. 
The snmpd.conf seems correct. as I can walk the system and hrSystem 
MIBS. I cannot walk through any others.

Hereis the error I get using anything other than the two MIBS shown below

IF-MIB::interfaces = No Such Object available on this agent at this OID
