It was the port already being taken, I reset the machine and tried one more time with success. I guess a tool to show which UDP sockets are bound in the system would be useful.
Even when the process was killed, the binding remained.

I suspect that you've actually got *two* agents on the system. There is probably an existing (vendor supplied?) agent which is already running, and thus prevents the new agent from starting up properly. a) Try running the Net-SNMP agent on a different port, and see whether: i) it starts up OK ii) you can query it b) Try shutting down the Net-SNMP agent, and then make sure there are no other SNMP-related processes running. Then start the Net-SNMP agent up again (on the normal port) and see what happens.
