That snmpget works fine just means that something on the remote machine is
working fine in interpreting the calls. What doesn't seem to be working for you
is calling the objects by name (as opposed to the number). I did notice that
the mrtg.cfg file is trying to pull in a MIB with this line:
LoadMIBs: /opt/mrtg/squid/mib.txt
does that file exist?
Also, you might want to take a look at mbrowse:
http://freshmeat.net/projects/mbrowse/?topic_id=152
it allows you to dig through mib files, finding the various objects and testing
walks against them to see what you are getting back in responses. The rest of
the error is just the script trying to use an uninitialized variable (since it
isn't getting data back, the variable is empty) and so fails from there. But it
is the main issue of:
Received SNMP response with error code
error status: noSuchName
index 1 (OID: 1.3.6.1.4.1.3495.1.5.2.1.2)
that is causing all the problems.
