My snmpd.conf was rocommunity public rwcommunity public authtrapenable 1 trapsink 10.0.0.45 public trapcommunity public rwuser philm noauth
I thought I had tried it with rwcommunity private but obviously not because when I just did it started working (modifying the set command as well). Is it not possible (I know it's an unwise thing to do) to set rwcommunity to public? If not it isn't clear to me why it wasn't working with the snmpd.conf above.

In particular - what access control setting do you have? Note that the community 'public' is normally configured for read-only access, so wouldn't support SET requests. See the FAQ for more details.
