net-snmp startup issue

Hi,

I have an daemon application that uses net-snmp to perform GET REQUESTS 
to an SNMP device to obtain information periodically and this works fine 
when developing.  The problem I have is that it doesn't work when 
starting the application from boot time.  I have logging turned on in 
net-snmp:

     snmp_enable_syslog();
     init_snmp(ssmd_app_name);

When running my application manually when the system has already booted 
I can see all the debug info in my log file, e.g.
Jan 14 15:52:56 ts7800 net-snmp[1039]: trace:
Jan 14 15:52:56 ts7800 net-snmp[1039]: read_config(): read_config.c, 777:
Jan 14 15:52:56 ts7800 net-snmp[1039]: read_config:
Jan 14 15:52:56 ts7800 net-snmp[1039]: /root/.snmp/snmp.local.conf:5 
examining: mibs +DeltaTelecomPower-MIB^M
Jan 14 15:52:56 ts7800 net-snmp[1039]: trace:
Jan 14 15:52:56 ts7800 net-snmp[1039]: run_config_handler(): 
read_config.c, 498:
Jan 14 15:52:56 ts7800 net-snmp[1039]: read_config:
Jan 14 15:52:56 ts7800 net-snmp[1039]: Found a parser.  Calling it: mibs 
/ +DeltaTelecomPower-MIB^M
Jan 14 15:52:56 ts7800 net-snmp[1039]: trace:

But if I reboot the system and let my application startup automatically 
I get nothing in the net-snmp log and my application log indicates that 
it is failing to parse OOID names from the DeltaTelecomPower-MIB, it 
looks like the init_snmp call hasn't read and processed the config.

The application is one of the last applications to startup, here is the 
complete list (smu is my application)
lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root   18 Jul  7  2010 S10sysklogd -> ../init.d/sysklogd*

lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root   13 Jul  7  2010 S80smu -> ../init.d/smu*
lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root   14 Jul  7  2010 S89cron -> ../init.d/cron*
lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root   17 Jul  7  2010 S90ts7kvfb -> ../init.d/ts7kvfb*
lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root   17 Jul  7  2010 S91apache2 -> ../init.d/apache2*
lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root   19 Jul  7  2010 S99rmnologin -> 
../init.d/rmnologin*
lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root   23 Jul  7  2010 S99stop-bootlogd -> 
../init.d/stop-bootlogd*

Interestingly snmpd works fine as I use this to mimic the SNMP device 
for initial development.

OS is linux, processor is arm.  I built the net-snmp 5.5 library using 
the default configuration.

Any ideas as this has got me stumped?

Best Regards,
Martin.
