Hi Greg,

I have been following your instructions above and compiled net-snmp 
version 5.1 from source. However when I get to the part where I have to 
run snmpconf I get an error:

#: snmpconf -g basic-setup
no such group basic-setup

What am I doing wrong? Are you using the same version of net-snmp? Did 
you compile from source? I tried using the debian package but in Woody 
it appears to be quite out of date - version 4.3 to be exact.

Thanks,
