[Voyage-linux] SNMP not returning full data

Check your etc/snmpd/snmpd.conf and make sure it's set for read-only as
opposed to paranoid. That should do the trick. Also, there's a file in
/var/lib/snmp called snmp.conf that I moved to /ro/var/lib/snmp/snmpd.conf
and made a link in the original location to /rw/var/lib/snmp/snmpd.conf
because it seemed appropriate. I don't know that I ever tested it without
doing that, so I can't speak to the necessity. But it didn't hurt.

Not sure if this is a Voyage problem per se ...

Most of my many WRAPs are identically loaded with Voyage 0.2 plus I've 
installed snmpd to monitor them.  For some reason I've not yet 
discovered (hence this email), the last few will not return anything 
except the basic system info when queried by MRTG's cfgmaker (or 
snmpwalk run manually for that matter).  So far I can't find any 
difference in version numbers, snmpd.conf or mibs between the ones that 
work fine and the newer ones.

Anyone else had this problem and what am I missing here?  It used to 
work and I can't find what's changed.  :-(

Thanks,

Edwin
