R: exec deprecated

Thanks for the amswer.
I see there a lot of extra data , also for indexing a variable ,
 so I wondering what the name are used for, it should be compose the last part of the oid
but the oid is enough qualified with the index I give to it ( 12, 13 and 14 ).
If , for example , I used always tha same name 'A', as in the belowe example, 
I should however get different oid for each command.
There should be something wrong in the following configuration file

extend .1.3.6.1.4.1.17377.35.12   A     /bin/cat /proc/cpuinfo
extend .1.3.6.1.4.1.17377.35.13   A     /bin/df -a
extend .1.3.6.1.4.1.17377.35.14   A     /sbin/lspci


give me output like this:

.1.3.6.1.4.1.17377.35.12.2.1.2.1.65 = STRING: "/bin/cat"
.1.3.6.1.4.1.17377.35.12.2.1.3.1.65 = STRING: "/proc/cpuinfo"
.......
.1.3.6.1.4.1.17377.35.13.2.1.2.1.65 = STRING: "/bin/df"
.1.3.6.1.4.1.17377.35.13.2.1.3.1.65 = STRING: "-a"
.........
.1.3.6.1.4.1.17377.35.14.2.1.2.1.65 = STRING: "/sbin/lspci"
.1.3.6.1.4.1.17377.35.14.2.1.3.1.65 = ""
.........

    $  man snmpd.conf

    EXTENDING AGENT FUNCTIONALITY
       Arbitrary Extension Commands

          [snip]

       extend [MIBOID] NAME PROG ARGS
              works in a similar manner to the exec directive, but with a num-
              ber  of  improvements.....

You use it in exactly the same way as the previous "exec" command:

    extend .1.3.6.1.4.1.17377.35.13   diskusage   /bin/df -a

The main difference is in the format of the output.
Try configuring this entry, and running "snmpwalk" on this OID,
and you'll see what I mean.
