OK - so the agent is at least responding.
What about other "standard" information - can you see the
ifTable, for instance?
(Yes, I know that's now what you're interested in.
But there's a reason for asking - trust me!)

Look at what the error is actually saying.
It's not that the agent doesn't respond - the problem is that "snmpget"
doesn't understand what it's being asked for.
It "cannot find [the] module NET-SNMP-TUTORIAL-MIB".
This file is not part of a standard installation - you need to install
the MIB file yourself.
Have you done this? Where have you copied this file to?
