Cacti problem with Mini SNMP Daemon [solved]

[pint]

Hello!

For some unkown reason i can't get Cacti to work with Mini SNMP Daemon agent. http://freshmeat.net/projects/minisnmpd
When adding a new device, it reports SNMP Error but somehow still lists all the right interfaces in 'Data Query [SNMP - Interface Statistics]'
No graphs will be generated and log tells me "CMDPHP: Poller[0] Host[8] SNMP: Host did not respond to SNMP "

Otherwise the agent seems to be working, as snmpwalk and Paessler's snmptester and Prtg network monitor works ok.
Cacti is also working fine with other devices which are not using Mini SNMPD agents.

I even found an old post about the same problem, but no answers: http://forums.cacti.net/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=40358
Is there really noone using lightweight Mini SNMPD with Openwrt-based routers out there?

Maybe someone has a clue why listing interfaces and snmpwalk works but snmp detection and graphs not?

snmpwalk from the cacti host machine:

Hi. I got the same issue at first, but was resolved by setting 'Downtime Device Detection' to PING instead of SNMP. You can find this under the device you configure.

I'll be damned - indeed it works! Thanks for the hint!
I guess i should have RTFM'd, because the option clearly states: " The method Cacti will use to determine if a host is available for polling."
