Description of problem:
can't do an snmpwalk on a redhat 9 box

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
net-snmp-5.0.6-17

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:

Actual Results:  <126.4.200.57> #/etc/init.d/snmpd restart
Stopping snmpd:      [OK]
Starting snmpd:      [OK]
<126.4.200.57> # snmpwalk -v2c -c public localhost
Timeout: No Response from localhost
<126.4.200.57> # /etc/init.d/snmpd status

I can run this same command from this box, and walk other snmp devies fine.

Has anyone duplicated this ??
Or at least commented on it ??

Comment 2 Phil Knirsch 2003-05-14 14:52:34 UTC
It depends on your configuration. It is a long standing and know issue that if
have configured net-snmp to only display subtrees (not .1) then an snmpwalk may
timeout while the snmpd is still running and busy for about 30-40 seconds.

The only working solution is to export the whole .1 tree.

Your problem is most likely related to bug #82146, so i am marking it as a
duplicate.

Read ya, Phil
