why my snmpd didn't work well?

Dear Dave Shield,

I'm a Asian student,I now meet a problem using net-snmp in linux(fedora core 3).

First,I download source packet net-snmp-5.2.1.tar.gz from net-snmp.sourceforge.org.

then

#tar zxvf net-snmp-5.2.1.tar.gz

#./configure --prefix=/var/snmp (I choose the default option)

#make

#make install

#cd /var/snmp/sbin

#./snmpd -c ./snmpd.conf&

it is all ok.and I can see the process is exist by using command 'ps -A' #../bin/snmpwalk -c public -v1 XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX 1

it says timeout,and receive no message.(why? This is my question)

You know,there is also a snmpd exist in /usr/sbin when I install the fedora core linux,

So,I start that snmpd

#/usr/sbin/snmpd -c ./snmpd.conf (file snmpd.conf is the same as the one before,I just copy it)

then i walk it,it is ok now.

Any more ,i find the port 199 is open,when i start the second snmpd agent.

but when i start the first snmpd agent,199 port is closed.

When I use 'file snmpd',it show that the first one is using share library while the second one is not, is this the reason?

Can you tell me why the first snmpd didn't work, and how i can solve this problem.

badly need your help!

thank you!
