We have the same problem: it is not possible to set the sysContact mib item,
if you have the mibiisa subagent connectect to snmpdx(master agent).
The sub-agent(which is responsible for mib-2) returns "noSuchName".
This looks like a community problem?
As far as I can see now the communities are set in snmpd.conf, and not in a
mibiisa conf file.
Any help is appreciated here.
Thanks.
