Enabling SNMP on ESX 3.0.1

I have searched these forums and searched Google and can only find fragmented and incomplete instructions on enabling SNMP for ESX 3.0.1 -- Is there any complete documentation out there?

This thread seems to have it covered quite well.

Download the vi3_admin_guide.pdf. Browse to page 74.

Strange... I configured the snmpd.conf accordingly, started the service and the test says "Timeout: No Response from localhost"

I will dig into the documentation further...

Is that from snmpwalk? Have you got localhost in your hosts file?
