SNMP errors (Error building packet, An error occurred, Quitting)

I have configured SNMP as per the FAQ, but whenever I try and test the SNMP
with snmpget or snmpwalk I get the following error message:

Error building packet
An error occurred, Quitting

I am running 2.2-STABLE5 and have snmpd installed. Someone else installed
Squid originally, so I'm not 100% sure if it was compiled
with --enable-snmp, but the rpm config suggest that it was (Suse Linux RPM
for Squid 2.2-STABLE5).

Command Line = snmpwalk -p 3401 localhost public .1.3.6.1.4.1.3495.1.1

Lines in squid.conf:

acl localhost src 127.0.0.1/255.255.255.255
acl myserver src x.x.x.x/255.255.255.255
acl snmppublic snmp_community public

snmp_port 3401

forward_snmpd_port 161

snmp_access allow snmppublic localhost
snmp_access allow snmppublic myserver
snmp_access deny all

I've also tried a commands line of:

snmpwalk localhost public system.sysdescr.0
and
snmpwalk myserver public system.sysdescr.0
and
snmpwalk -p 3401 myserver public system.sysdescr.0

all with the same error message.

Any ideas???
