I have two different servers, one with 5.4.2.1 and the other with 5.6.1rc2. In both cases, I built for only the applications (snmpget, walk, Perl libs, etc.) and don't use snmpd. On both, I have the same set of MIB files in /usr/local/share/snmp/mibs (I copied the files from the 5.4.2.1 system to the newer, since the older was giving me the behavior I wanted).
On 5.4.2.1, I can retrieve from the ENTITY-MIB as shown below; on 5.6.1.rc2, it gives me "Unknown Object Identifier". Snmptranslate of "entPhysicalSerialNum" fails on both. Also, the output presentation of a basic snmpwalk is quite different between the two different versions. As far as I can tell, I have no snmp.conf in any of the usual suspect locations on either system. Any thoughts??
