This is a different problem. What's happening here is that the
routine that parses the arguments to the 'snmpset' command is seeing
the '-' of the new value, and treating it as a command-line option.
This normally generates an error (since digits typically aren't valid
command line option).
The easiest way to solve this is include the "end-of-option"
indicator '--' in the command line, somewhere before the new value
(but after all of the options, obviously). For example:
snmpset -v 2c -c public localhost -- versionRestartAgent.0 i -1
(This command will still fail, since -1 isn't an acceptable value for this particular object, but that's not the point here!)
