Subagent context question

[everythingsfree____another.com]

Frank,

I don't know what you mean by having the SNMP-COMMUNITY-MIB configured appropriately but that's probably because of my lack of understanding.

However, I do understand what you mean by using contexts and the "-cn" option.  I've tried the following command:

snmpGet 127.0.0.1 1.3.6.1.4.1.4976.6.1.1.2.224 -cnsubagent

which again returns 'Variable does not exist'.

As I'm using the master and subagent examples from your source code can you give me an "snmpGet" command that will work and will retrieve some data from the static table that's in the "subagent" context?

Once I've got something that I know should work I can then look further into the code if it doesn't rather than not knowing whether I'm at fault with the command I'm trying.

Thanks,
Mike
