I saw the same thing on NT4 SP5.  Two registry keys were missing
on my system.  I added

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\SNMP\Parameters\Extens
ionAgents]
"LMMIB2Agent"="SOFTWARE\\Microsoft\\LANManagerMIB2Agent\\CurrentVersion"
"RFC1156Agent"="SOFTWARE\\Microsoft\\RFC1156Agent\\CurrentVersion"

and the problem was solved after restarting the service.  The RFC1156
one by itself will fix the sysUpTime problem.  The other was necessary
on my server to get the enterprises.lanmanager goodies to show.

This is about the same as what's on http://www.toucan.ie/ntmrtg/ about
halfway down the page.  Since the value names don't seem to matter I
decided to use names rather than numbers to maybe prevent future
overwrites by others slamming in a "1" or "2" without looking
(as that FAQ notes some must do).
