Problem with check_snmp

[Mark D. Valpreda]

Thanks for everyone's help. It turned out to be an OLD version of
snmpget on my RH6.1 box.

I do not believe '-m ALL' is wrong. You can determine for your self with
'man snmpcmd'

I think that means you have a bad MIB somewhere, or you are missing 
an important MIB in your MIB search path. Use:

check_snmp -v -H X.X.X.X -o .1.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.2.1.1.0 -C public -m ''
