snmpset problm on AIX 4.3.3

["Geoffrey Cheng/Markham/IBM" <gcheng@ca.ibm.com>]

Hi,

     Has anyone ever used "snmpset" agaist snmp agent (snmpd) running
     on AIX 4.3.3? I ran through a couple of tests and find out no matter
how
     I configure my /etc/snmpd.conf, when I tried the command like the
followings:

     # snmpset -c ReadWriteCommunity MyAIXBox system.sysContact.0 \
     octetstringascii "operator"

     it returns me:

     snmpset: This variable is read only.

     I don't have such problem on AIX 4.2.1 and I'm sure the
/etc/snmpd.conf
     is configured corrected and refreshed timely.

     Has anyone met the same situation? Thanks.
