When you say "finish by" - do you mean that you get some
results, followed by this timeout message? Or is this the
*only* output you get from the getnext/walk request?

If you do see some real results first, what is the last such value?

It would probably also be useful if you could indicate the *exact*
commands you are running each time - rather than something
vague like "snmpgetnext" or "snmpwalk".

Not necessarily.
It may be waiting for results from somewhere else, or looking
for a result that is within an authorised view. Without a clearer
description of exactly what you're trying, and exactly what you
are seeing, it's difficult to comment.

Either of those should be OK.
Just to be certain, try using the same invocation as the
debug version - but without the irrelevant flags.
I.e if things worked with

/opt/FERMA/sbin/agtcks .... -f -Le -Dread_config -d localhost:7075

then try with

/opt/FERMA/sbin/agtcks .... localhost:7075

In gnereal, if you've got something that works, it's a good idea to
change as little as possible.
