Sounds as if the problem lies in the SNMP_util module, which is part of the 
MRTG installation.  I have no familiarity with your OS but it may be that this 
module is making some assumptions about SNMP - maybe there are permissions 
issues on who can listen the UDP responses, for example.

Since snmpwalk works we know the issue is not the agent, but snmpwalk uses 
different code to SNMP_util.pm.

I'd suggest you direct your investigations to this module, maybe make a small 
Perl script to use it to make a single SNMP lookup and see if that works?

Thanks for the responses. I took the easy way out and decided to use a different monitoring tool. Found that rrd was a pre-compiled package for my openwrt install. Gave that a try and got it working.

Unfortunately, this project is short-fused and I don't have much time to troubleshoot the mrtg install...even though I got this far :) I agree, the problem was probably in SNMP_util.pm. I didn't get too far in examining that or the packet dumps that I captured. I'm also wondering if running the perl code on a big endian machine vs a little endian machine made a difference?

Thanks again
Brandon
