There was quite a bit of work done on fixing snmp in 3.2v5.0.6.
However, that wasn't one of my reported bugs.

I'm guessing(tm) that the error is coming from whatever is the next
OID in the MIB tree.

1.  Do you have any other MIB trees grafted onto the 1.3.6.1.2.1.25
part of the tree?

2.  What happens when you use just numeric OID's?
(leave out the -f hostmib.dfn)

3.  What happens when you dump the whole tree?
      getmany mybox public iso

4.  What comes after the hrMemorySize.0 OID? (I don't have an OSR5 box
handy to check this myself).  Duz it always crash at exactly the same
place?

5.  What happens when you walk the MIB tree from another machine
running a differnt MIB browser?  (Linux with UCD-SNMP/Net-SNMP or
Windoze with GetIf 2.2).  (i.e. is the problem in SNMP or in the
getmany program).

6.  I've seen similar error codes from Hostmib with removeable
diskdrives that were mounted, but then disconnected.  Also, as I noted
in my instructions, getmany dies with rediculously long OID's.
However, hostmib is very short.
