Moving Intell. Agent Ports?

Anyone have any luck in reassigning the dbsnmp process to use different port numbers than the default 1748 and 1754? 

 

The setup:
 

OMS and OEM 2.2 install on NT
box, -->  Ora 8.1.6 w/ Intell Agent installed on AIX
 

The unix box has 3rd party apps that do not allow ports 1748 and 1754 open but instead I have listed in the snmp_rw.ora file on unix:
 

<FONT face=Arial
size=2>dbsnmp.address=(DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=tcp)(HOST=hostname)(PORT=new_port_number))) dbsnmp.spawnaddress=(DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=tcp)(HOST=hostname)(PORT=another_port_number)))

I bounced the Agent and did:
 

netstat -an | grep 11900
netstat -an | grep 11910
 

add the Agent was listening!  Fine.  I go to the Windoze NT box and do:
 

tnsping
(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=TCP)(PORT=11900)(HOST=MTW2))
 

It comes back with < 300ms
 

I fire up OEM Console and try to discover the unix box.
 

But all I get is VNI-4044  (failed to
discover).  I added the above line to snmp_rw.ora on the NT box but no good result.  There must be a way to configure the OMS to communicate with the IAgent on the non-standard port numbers.  I can't believe these ports are hardcoded are they?
