Agent trying to receive SET request only gets timeout

[christel.sohnemann____philips.com]

Hello,
I use Agent++ in the latest version and I am using SNMP v2c. I try to receive a SET request. 
I initialize the SNMP connection with class Snmpx and use port 0 (which is default in base class Snmp).
I set a enterprise specific variable with the management application. My problem: I do not receive any request on Agent site. Both, manager and agent run on NT4.0 platform (both on the same host).
I wonder, if I must set the SNMP version? I do not find that in any example code.... 
I wonder if there is anything essential I forgot during initialization? Is port 0 really correct? I cannot initialize with port 161 or 162, these are already in use (indicated by the error I get).

Any help is really appreciated, as debugging this is really nasty... 

Best regards and many thanx in advance!

The code how to receive the request is as follows:


// Initialization of SNMP session
	int iStatus(0);

	// create SNMP socket connection
	m_pSnmpConnection = new Snmpx( iStatus, 0 );

	if ( SNMP_CLASS_SUCCESS != iStatus )
	{
		//... error handling
	}

	// create SNMP request list
	m_pRequestList = new RequestList;
	m_pRequestList->set_snmp(m_pSnmpConnection); 

	// create the one and only mib
	m_pParentMib = new Mib;

	// register request list used by mib for outgoing requests
	m_pParentMib->set_request_list( m_pRequestList );

	// add snmpGroup 
	m_pParentMib->add(new snmpGroup()); // (provided with AGENT++) to mib ...

	// add specific mib to parent mib
	m_pParentMib->add(pMib );

[...]

// receive request  (runs in loop, this is only an extract)
	Request* pRequest; // pointer to an incoming SNMP request 

	// wait for incoming request max timeout  sec
	pRequest = m_pRequestList->receive(m_iRequestListenTimeout);


	if (pRequest)
	{
		// check if request comes from one of those snmp managers being allowed
		// to send requests!
		CTarget* pOriginAddress = pRequest->get_address();
		if ( isValidIPAddress(pOriginAddress) )
		{
			try
			{
				m_pParentMib->process_request(pRequest); // process the request
			}
			catch(const DSException& e)
			{
				// ... error handling
			}
		}
	}
