Why are you running snmpgetnext as root? It shouldn't be needed. Oh!!!聛0聞2 I didn't even think about it... almost anything involving network accesses requires root; I just made assumptions!!聛0聞2 Okay, just tried as normal user, and I don't get the name errors now; but I still time out on both attempts: snmpget -v 3 -n none -u usr-none-none -l noAuthNoPriv demo.snmplabs.com 1.3.6.1.2.1.1.2.0 and snmpgetnext -v 3 -n none -l noAuthNoPriv -u noAuthUser 127.0.0.1 1.3.6.1.2.1.1.2.0 BTW, I verified that I can ping demo.snmplabs.com, so there's no general access issue. Also, my linux firewall is disabled, so there's no blocking going on. //*********************************** Okay, I think I understand what is going on... I was running snmpd itself as root - so it also was likely not seeing any of my .conf files. I just killed it, then restarted it as normal user, and now I'm getting all kinds of error messages from it, regarding the various snmpd.conf files that I have scattered around. I'll pick this back up on Monday, when I get back to work... I need to study conf files for a bit, then try this again!! Thank you all for your help!!
