** using NetSnmp 5.4

I am trying to learn how to use the snmp.conf file to store some settings for my agent.

Here is the "configure" command I am using for install:

../configure \
--prefix=/export/home/rosent1/snmp/usr/local \
--srcdir=/export/home/rosent1/snmp/net-snmp-5.4 \
--enable-embedded-perl \
--enable-shared \
--with-mib-modules="OC-STB-HOST-MIB"



If I set the MIBS environment variable, then I can start the agent and execute a
"snmpwalk" command and all the row information displays fine.

I am trying to get the "snmpwalk" command to work without setting the MIBS environment variable to "ALL". I thought I could simply do any of the following three things to get my MIB loaded, but none of these things work:

1) Try setting the MIBS environment variable to append the specific MIB to load:

export MIBS=+OC-STB-HOST-MIB

2) Try using the "--with-mibs=+OC-STB-HOST-MIB" option in the configure command

3) Add the following line into the "/export/home/rosent1/snmp/usr/local/share/snmp/snmp.conf" file:

mibs +OC-STB-HOST-MIB


Questions:

1) Why do none of these three alternative methods of loading a MIB file work?

2) If I set the MIBS environment variable to be "ALL" again, then everything works fine. What is going on?
