The only issues I am seeing are some snmp timeout errors in
MailScanner-mrtg.
Scott,

Did you manage to figure out an answer for this?
Not yet. I can poll snmp without error from the commandline, but get timeouts
almost every run of mailscanner-mrtg.
I am about ready to disable the snmp tests in mrtg until I can figure it out.
I am getting tired of having my servers nag me all day.

Since you asked, are you seeing the same thing?

Yup, ever since servers upgraded to 4.5.. something like:

Timeout: No Response from localhost:161
.

Works as expected from the command line though.

Further troubleshooting:
mailscanner-mrtg uses this to query the interfaces
/usr/bin/snmpwalk -v 2c -c COMMUNITY localhost:161 .1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.16

This was timing out but would strangely not show on it on the terminal when run manually. This surely wasn't the case before.. so a 'rpm -q --changelog net-snmp-utils | head -13' tells me that now 'communication can be limited by tcp_wrappers'. Adding the right entry to hosts.allow appears to have solved the problem.
