Does 

  snmpwalk localhost public .1.3.6.1.2.1

return anything??? Sad man can still remember common oids!

You might want to make sure you're using the relevant version... last time I 
used this a lot, 2c was usual. Options 1, 2c, 3. Try adding in -v 1 or -v 2c 
and see if that makes any difference. 3 uses a different syntax iirc.
