[AGENT++] A few questions on the master & subagent examples

Hi,

the command line is ok, as the master agent receives the request, but it
seems that it answers it himself:

> 20070328.11:40:56: 24369: (2)EVENT  : Mib: process request: getbulk
> request, oid: (22), (1.3.6.1.4.1.4976.6.1.1)
> 20070328.11:40:56: 24369: (3)EVENT  : RequestList: finished subrequest
> (ind)(oid)(val)(syn): (0), (1.3.6.1.4.1.4976.6.1.1), (), (130)

SNMPv3 uses engine ids and the manager uses engine id discovery to find
it out. Therefore the snmpBulk sends at least two requests to the agent.

-1401 is defined as SNMPv3_MP_OK which is the "ok" return for v3MP.

The unmodified examples are working for me.
