(1)I have aproblem with one item which returns a normal value ( -490 ) when I manually do "snmpget..." and zabbix returns 4294966806. It's happening only on one client - the others work fine. What could be the problem?
(2)Also when I start zabbix_suckerd I get snmpget: Timeout but I can't see about what ( which item, which host...), so if there's a place to configure zabbix to spew more info on the snmp messages - where is it, and if there isn't maybe there's a chance of adding one???
Thanks in advance,
Shai

This sounds like a signed/unsigned prob. The number you're getting is 2^32 -490, exactly what happens when a signed 32bit integer is interpreted as an unsigned one. Probably the SNMP code isn't expecting signed/negative values, but that is something for Alexei to respond to...

in zabbix_suckerd.conf change the logging from 1 to 3 or 4 or 5

What's SNMP type of the OID? COUNTER64?

SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.1449.10.2.1.6.1.1.1.11.1 = INTEGER
and I set the information for debug level, but still all I get is snmpget: Timeout...
No new info in the zabbix_suckerd.log
