No results from 1.3.6.1.4.1 onwards using snmpwalk

Hi 
   I am trying to do SNMP monitoring  for  Oracle. I
am also planning  to write a SNMP plugin for the
same,I want nagios to monitor all the services using
SNMP . I have few doubts , I  would like to get some
feedback of your experience in  SNMP way of monitoring
oracle 

I am using RHEL4 and snmp NET-SNMP version:  5.1.3.1

Doubt (1)
  I  would like to know why the “snmptranslate “   of
the OID  above the  enterprise level do not return a
proper result , 
   till the enterprise level , I get the required
result 
    eg   when I give
        [john@john ~]$ snmptranslate -Of 1.3.6.1.4.1
.iso.org.dod.internet.private.enterprises

  the  snmp OID  of oracle is  “ 1.3.6.1.4.1.111”  and
when I do snmptranslate  for 1.3.6.1.4.1.111 ,  I get
[john@john ~]$snmptranslate -Of 1.3.6.1.4.1.111
.iso.org.dod.internet.private.enterprises.111
Why I am not getting 
.iso.org.dod.internet.private.enterprises.111  instead
of
“ .iso.org.dod.internet.private.enterprises.oracle “ ?

In similar way , If I try for IBM oid “1.3.6.1.4.1.2”
, I get 
[john@john ~]$ snmptranslate -Of 1.3.6.1.4.1.2
.iso.org.dod.internet.private.enterprises.2

Doubt (2)
Oracle has its own snmp , to start it , u need to
execute the script   ./start_peer -a  at 
 $ORACLE_HOME/netwrok/snmp/peer , after executing this
script [(I have the views enabled from  1.3.6. ie
“dod” onwards for all the machines , and I am able to
get results using snmpwalk for eth0 , cpu ,mem , hda
etc ) ].
             But  I do not get any results when I do a
snmpwalk to the oracle server for the oracle id
“1.3.6.1.4.1.111”  
            “snmpwalk 192.168.20.117   1.3.6.1.4.1.111
-c public “ 

  I cannot understand why I am not able to snmpwall
after the enterprise level , and also   why I am not
getting the snmptranslate after the enterprise  level
,  for all other oid I get proper results 
         Thanks in advance 
                 Joseph 
                 OS => RHEL 4
                 snmp =  NET-SNMP version:  5.1.3.1
