Thanks. That summarizes nicely the steps I've taken. It's a bit better put
together that the several sets of instructions I was working from. The steps
it shows are exactly what I ended up doing though.

Should be useful when I extend our Nagios monitoring to include snmp data.
We're using Nagios extensively, but it doesn't seem suited to the sort of
load graphing we need for our CPU cores - or if it is it's a side of Nagios
I'm unfamiliar with (which could be, it's nicely extensible).

I guess I was thinking originally that you'd find the snmp configuration more useful than anything really related to Nagios on that page.  Nagios itself doesn't do graphing but some addons can utilize Nagios data to produce graphs.  If you can successfully use snmpwalk on the remote system, then at least you know snmp isn't the problem and you might not find that article very useful.
