The above output indicates that the MIBs used by snmpget program are not 
parseable correctly. This causes an output to be returend on the stderr 
channel thus invoking a WARNING

To prevent this WARNING - either fix the MIB loading issue (any snmp* 
command invocation will tell you which MIB is causing the problem)

or use the "-m :" option to stop loading the MIBs (and speed up the 
process as well [but you have to use numeric oids])


If you were getting a true WARNING - the data output ( 6 in this example) 
would be surrounded by stars (eg: *6*)
