There seem to be multiple versions of snmpwalk around that take
radically different command-line arguments, and don't tell you helpfully
when you get them wrong.

You'll definately have to check the man page to see what your version
does; and as Steve suggests, try using the numberic OID in case you
don't have a working MIB name translation setup (although I'd be
surprised that anyone got 'system' wrong, you never know)

Try snmpget for just system.upTime.0 (1.3.6.1.2.1.1.0 IIRC), in case the
machine isn't answering the recursive queries.
