Version 5.6.1.1, Windows platform...

When doing a GetBulk to a proxied agent through snmpd (snmpd is the main
agent, proxying to a non net-snmp implementation), snmpd returns an NULL
varbind just before the EndOfMib.  The last entry of the response has the
last OID with its value, followed by the last OID with a NULL varbind, and
finally the last OID with an EndOfMib.  The error-index of the response is
set to 1 with an error-status of noSuchName.  This application issuing the
request processes this as an error, and none of the OIDs are displayed.

 If I issue the GetBulk directly to the proxied agent, the extra NULL
varbind is not there (just the last OID with its value followed by the last
OID with and EndOfMib), and the error-index and error-status are 0, and the
response is processed fine.  

Does anyone know if this is a bug in snmpd?  I've seen some reports in the
patch lists that suggest removing an extra NULL  varbind prior to EndOfMib
in various versions, both prior and after 5.6.1.1.  I've downloaded the
latest (5.7.2), and prior versions as well, but they all seem to operate the
same.

Thanks for your help...

Mike
