Some questions

Hello all.

This is a really basic question.. just starting with snmp and nothing seems
to work.. I have to be doing something wrong..

Anyway, this is the question,

Following the examples from this page

http://net-snmp.sourceforge.net/tutorial/tutorial-5/commands/snmpv3.html

I get always time out, the server is alive since it response to ping, I have
the feeling that is a security problem..

# snmpgetnext -v 3 -n "" -u MD5DESUser -a MD5 -A "The Net-SNMP Demo
Password" -x DES -X "The Net-SNMP Demo Password" -l authPriv
test.net-snmp.org system
snmpgetnext: Timeout

Which ports do I have to have open to get the response? or what do youy
think is the problem?

Another thing, the net snmp 5.2.2 does not compile in my RH 9, it does in a
Fedora 4 machine, but when I run the example of this page

http://net-snmp.sourceforge.net/tutorial/tutorial-5/toolkit/demoapp/index.html

In the FC 4 I get a missing libnetsnmp.so.9..

Going back to the 5.1.3 it compiles on both machines, but the example in the
RH9 gives me somthing like this:

No log handling enabled - turning on stderr logging
ack: Out of memory (malloc failure)
something horrible happened!!!

Any hint???

Thanks a lot.
