Thanks to Thomas' suggestion I have successfully configured net-snmp as
a master agent and a sub-agent on two different servers.  This was
verified by doing a tcpdump on both servers and filtering for port 705.

Now that this is setup and running, I am unable to do a snmpwalk on the
sub-agent.  When I run, snmpwalk -v2c -c 'community string' 'hostname'
iftable against my sub-agent I do not get any output.  Doing it against
a host that isn't configured as a sub-agent, I get the expected output.

Any suggestions?

Thanks.

If they're running on different machines, but you point both to
localhost only,
then how do you think they'll ever know about (let alone: speak to) each
other?

Try specifying the master agent IP address (instead of localhost) in
both the
master agent and the subagent invocation.
