Trivial Zabbix Agent didn't detect interface and put in debug mode, I could see

I'm using Zabbix Agent 2.2.2 from packages found here in http://repo.zabbix.com/zabbix/2.2/rhel/6/
Zabbix run using zabbix user account :
zabbix 13646 0.0 0.0 74808 1340 ? S 13:40 0:00 /usr/sbin/zabbix_agentd zabbix 13648 0.0 0.0 74808 1356 ? S 13:40 0:00 /usr/sbin/zabbix_agentd: collector [idle 1 sec] zabbix 13649 0.0 0.0 74824 1536 ?

zabbix-agent locally found informations :
sudo -u zabbix -H zabbix_agent -t "net.if.discovery" net.if.discovery [s|{ "data":[ { "{#IFNAME}":"lo"}, { "{#IFNAME}":"eth0"}]}] ... sudo -u zabbix -H zabbix_agent -t "net.if.in[eth0,bytes]" net.if.in[eth0,bytes] [u|165056082720]
But not remotly :
zabbix-get -s slave1.mycorp.com -k net.if.in[eth0,bytes] ZBX_NOTSUPPORTED zabbix-get -s slave1.mycorp.com -k net.if.discovery { "data":[]}
I don't have problems with Agent running under openSUSE 12.2/12.3/13.1 or CentOS 5.10
