[SOLVED] SNMP returning no data, no interface list

I've spend about 3 hours trying to figure this out and I've seen alot of people with the same problem.

In cacti 0.8.6g (and perhaps f), using redhat (I've seen enterprise, RH9, Fedora 3 and 4 mentioned) there's a problem getting the list of interfaces to be detected, which allows you to graph traffic.

The typical problems involve the following errors:
"No SNMP data returned" (from verbose query in the devices detail)
No data returned while running snmpwalk -v 1 -c public localhost .1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.1
General problems getting Interface - Traffic graphs to work

The problem resides in the permissions for SNMP version 1 users in the /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf file

You need to change the following limits:
view systemview included .1.3.6.1.2.1.1
view systemview included .1.3.6.1.2.1.25.1.1

to:
view systemview included .1.3.6.1.2.1
view systemview included .1.3.6.1.2.1.25.1.1

This reduces the limits to the pubic group's access using smtpwalk and allows cacti to get the list of interfaces.

What OID are actually heading for? What kind of data are you expecting?

I'm receiving the same error when attempting to start the SNMP - Interface Statistics data query. I tried to manually run the snmpwalk but I get "End of MIB" when I try to run the full command.

i run cacti 0.8.6j on FC5 on our companys cacti server with
view systemview included .1.3.6.1.2.1.1
view systemview included .1.3.6.1.2.1.25.1.1
traffic graphs are fine so far.

now i installed cacti 0.8.7b via yum install cacti on my homeserver FC8
i got no traffic graphs. then i changed snmpd.conf
from: view systemview included .1.3.6.1.2.1.1
__to: view systemview included .1.3.6.1.2.1
now i have also fine traffic graphs on my fc8 with 0.8.7b
thanks leoutskot
