Have you tried the solution Dave proposed? 

It seems so much easier than the one I gave?

If you want to implement your own private MIB to do this, first follow the NET-SNMP 
tutorial about extending the agent: 
http://www.net-snmp.org/tutorial-5/toolkit/mib_module/index.html

Regards,
David

It should be possibly to use the UCD-SNMP-MIB::extTable
to handle this, by setting up a (dummy) "exec" line:

        exec    reboot /usr/bin/uptime

and then a corresponding "execfix" line:

        execfix reboot /usr/bin/reboot

Then
        snmpset .....  UCD-SNMP-MIB::extErrFix.{N} i 1

(where {N} is the appropriate index) should reboot the system.


But be *VERY* careful about your access control settings.
This *NOT* something you want to allow general access to with
the "public" or "private" communities.   (Or probably any
Internet-wide community-based SNMP at all!)
