If you are sending the query to 'localhost', then most typical default firewall configurations will allow this. As long as the agent is running, I'd suspect that the most likely cause is access control. What does your snmpd.conf look like? It's also worth checking the system logs to see whether the snmpd agent reports anything when it first starts up.
