What access control settings do you have in the snmpd.conf file on host1?
Remember, the snmp agent providing the proxy service needs to validate the
the request before it is passed on to the other agent.

I suggest that you get queries to the Net-SNMP agent running on host1
working first, before you look at passing some of these requests on
to the second agent.
