How is the agent being started?
It might be set up to only listen on localhost.
Try running "netstat -an | grep 8159'

If there's an entry for   127.0.0.1:8159
   then that will be the problem.
Have a look at the scripts or configuration
used to start the agent.

If there's an entry for    *:8159
   then the problem is something else.
In which case we'll need some more information,
such as the O/S you are running on, and the
access configuration settings in the snmpd.conf file.

My guess is that Emanate is being clever, and
spotting that 10.77.168.10 is the address of a local
interface, so is actually sending it to 'localhost'
in both cases.
