Apprently one need to sublass pdufactory,
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/8069244/how-to-add-the-snmpv3-context-name-if-using-tableutils-gettable-in-snmp4j
but how do I figure the context id string ?

I tried a getbulk table, but still that same bloody error
final PDUFactory pduFactory = new DefaultPDUFactory(PDU.GETBULK);
final TableUtils utils = new TableUtils(snmp, pduFactory);
utils.getTable(target, new OID[]{ new OID(oid) }, null, null);

Please help, I am really struggling with this, that OID exists, no matter I use GT or GETNEXT, it return "no such instance"
If I look the infos on that oid : .1.3.6.1.2.1.4.20.1.2
Walk:
-------
IP-MIB::ipAdEntIfIndex.127.0.0.1 = INTEGER: 1
IP-MIB::ipAdEntIfIndex.192.168.1.128 = INTEGER: 2
snmptranslate -Td :
-------------------------
IP-MIB::ipAdEntIfIndex
ipAdEntIfIndex OBJECT-TYPE
-- FROM IP-MIB
SYNTAX INTEGER (1..2147483647)
MAX-ACCESS read-only
STATUS deprecated
DESCRIPTION "The index value which uniquely identifies the interface to
which this entry is applicable. The interface identified by
a particular value of this index is the same interface as
identified by the same value of the IF-MIB's ifIndex."
::= { iso(1) org(3) dod(6) internet(1) mgmt(2) mib-2(1) ip(4) ipAddrTable(20) ipAddrEntry(1) 2 }

Hi,
If walk (which is a GETNEXT in fact) and GET behave differently then most likely you are using the wrong OID (wrong instance identifier). Sometimes the agent is broken too.
In your case, you should put the Snmp instance in listen mode to receive answers from the agent. See FAQ for details.
Best regards
Frank
