"ok. so what is the question again?
sorry it was a bit confusing the first time."

Sorry for the confusion, I was under the mis-assumption that the public string was maintained somewhere other than the snmp.config file. I am trying to learn about snmp and was unable to perform a snmpwalk against my own box.
I finally found the information in the snmp.config file.
Sorry for the wasted bandwidth.
