We have a number of Business editions rolled out and noticing that we can't query services.
When running with the following we only get back the snmpd service
snmpd 47456 0.0 0.2 38816 26476 - S 08:01 0:00.01 /usr/local/sbin/snmpd -p /var/run/net_snmpd.pid -u snmpd -g snmpd
zabbix:~$ snmpwalk -v2c -cExample foo.bar.com .1.3.6.1.2.1.25.4.2.1.2
iso.3.6.1.2.1.25.4.2.1.2.47456 = STRING: "snmpd"
If I kill the process and start as root, we get the full list.

I don't see this issue with the non Business edition. It always seems to start as root and not the snmpd user.
Seems you can set the following in /usr/local/etc/rc.d/snmpd to have it run as root.
Just curious why Business vs Community causes this break.
snmpd_sugid="NO"
# cat /usr/local/opnsense/service/templates/OPNsense/Netsnmp/snmpd
{% if helpers.exists('OPNsense.netsnmp.general.enabled') and OPNsense.netsnmp.general.enabled == '1' %}
snmpd_setup="/usr/local/opnsense/scripts/OPNsense/Netsnmp/setup.sh"
snmpd_enable="YES"
snmpd_sugid="NO"
{% else %}
snmpd_enable="NO"
{% endif %}
Also, there's been some great upstream idea (https://cgit.freebsd.org/ports/commit/net-mgmt/net-snmp?id=3327b2e94adbc1fa1c6299ed04942395e5de650a) - which shouldn't be relevant here - but definitely broke things nicely (https://forums.freebsd.org/threads/net-snmp-wont-start-with-setgid-operation-not-permitted.94111/#post-662397).
It's most secure when it's not running at all. You are just half-way there on business, apparently. :-*
