What is the access control setup on "host2" ? > For host3 I have a community name configured as "v2community". i.e > rocommunity v2community > rwcommunity v2community Nooo!!!!!! **WHY** do people insist on duplicating community settings like this. If you've got a read-write community setting, you don't need a read-only directive with the same community name. read-write access *includes* read access. That's what the word "read" means!!!!

Is host2 passing it on to host3 (which then rejects it), or does host2 reject it before it ever gets to host3? If you run the agent on host3 using something like snmpd -f -Le -d you should see packet dumps for all traffic in and out. This should indicate whether the requests are getting that far or not.
