That's because you are querying the Net-SNMP agent, not Sun's agent. > /usr/sfw/bin/snmpwalk -v 2c -c public localhost .1.3.6.1.4.1.42 > SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.42 = No Such Object That is correct - the Net-SNMP agent does not implement Sun's vendor-specific information. > when i stop net-snmp 5.4.2.1, and re-enable Sun's native SNMP (snmpdx+sma > services) > > i can poll it : Because you are now talking to Sun's agent. Which includes the Sun vendor-specific information. > so i wonder if there was any difference between your net-snmp and sun's snmp Yes - they are two completely different agents, written by two completely different groups of people. > how can i make my "new" net-snmp 5.4.2.1 working with Sun OID ? Please see the file 'README.solaris', which includes information about running the two agents together. > even without special mibs, i "should" be able to poll the OID right ?. Wrong. The Sun-specific vendor extensions are *only* implemented by Sun's agent. The Net-SNMP agent simply does not include the code needed to return this information. Our agent returns various standard MIB information, plus our own vendor-specific extensions. We do not attempt to re-implement other vendor-specific MIB objects.
