[comp.dcom.sys.cisco] cisco MIB and SNMP

I don't know if this is the appropriate group to ask this, but here
goes:

I am trying to access the local variables in the cisco MIB using CMU's
SNMP library (in this case, for testing purposes, the snmptest
program).  I am trying to access the romId variable with the following
address:

	.1.3.6.1.4.1.9.2.1.1.0
         ^^^^^^^^^^^^^ ^ ^ ^ ^
             cisco     | | | +-- instance sub-identifier
                       | | +---- romId { lsystem 1 }
                       | +------ lsystem { local 1 }
                       +-------- local { cisco 2 }

Am I missing something here?  This doesn't work when I write a program
specifically to get this value (which should be an octet string).

Thanks in advance for your help.

Tom

              It's not easy taking my problems one at a time
                    when they refuse to get in line.
