RE: snmpget and snmpwalk return corrupt string instead of hex string when MAC address starts with non zero

The files are there. Yes this shows that I have been editing IP-MIB but I have copied the original back.
In another message: I recently discovered that editing the IMPORT line in RFC1213 works... I wonder if this is related to my compiling with --enable-old-features
Thank you.

You need to remove the RFC1213-MIB *and* install the IP-MIB, etc.
One without the other won't work.

This ought to be set up automatically as part of installing the Net-SNMP
package.  The fact that the IP-MIB currently isn't being found is a bad sign.

No - that's not a sensible approach.
Concentrate on getting the standard MIBs loaded properly.

What does
     'ls /usr/local/net-snmp/5.5/share/snmp/mibs'
           report?
