	Hello.

	I can read this MIB entry with snmpwalk, but MRTG is having some
	problem.  I know I'm missing something, but can't see what.

	I'll be grateful for suggestions, as I'm baffled.

	What follows below shows
	 - MRTG version (not splinter-new)
	 - Numeric OID in MRTG configuration
	 - Successful retrieval of value with snmpwalk
	 - Extract from MRTG configuration relevant to specific target
	 - Top of MRTG/rateup log file for target,
	   with value indicating failure
	 - Log file for relevant instance of MRTG, looking squeaky-clean

	45 other instances of MRTG are running on the same box, without
	problems.
