Having the same problem Joseph had, but on WinNT4.0 with both the 00-02-19 and the 00-08-31 binary snapshots.
I did not find any information on this in the Readme, FAQ and the mail archives. So though I'm a newbie, please give me a hint.

Thanks,
Toni

Copying Joseph's unanswered requests:
Hello,
Interactively, I created a very simple responder (agent) and a very simple generator (manager ) using wish83.exe on a Win98 host with IP = 10.16.212.198
I was surprised: when I use the session with -address 10.16.212.198, the responsder does not reply while if I use the session with -address 127.0.0.1 I got reply (as expected)
Is it normal or is it a configuration problem ?
Hereafter is what I got on the consoles as well the routing table.
Thanks in advance

===============================
AGENT SIDE
% package require Tnm 3.0
3.0.0
% Tnm::snmp responder -port 161 -community public

MANAGER SIDE
% package require Tnm 3.0
3.0.0
% Tnm::snmp generator -address 127.0.0.1 -port 161
snmp0
% snmp0 get sysDescr.0
{1.3.6.1.2.1.1.1.0 {OCTET STRING} {Tnm SNMP agent version 3.0.0 (intel-Windows95-4.10)}}
% Tnm::snmp generator -address 10.16.212.198 -port 161
snmp1
% snmp1 get sysDescr.0
noResponse 0 {}
%
========================================================
When I try to get an object from 10.16.212.198, the agent does not reply. Capturing with Ethereal, the reason is that the agent host sends a ICMP packet with "port unreachable" .
What could be the reason for that ICMP packet ?
