Thanks for your response,
I think, the main problem is my ECOS snmp agent doesn't read the lines from snmd.conf file. (or reads but doesn't use it) Because, it should at least call "vacm_parse_security" or "vacm_parse_group" functions to register the user. but, it doesn't. Or, i'm still missing some points. May be there are some patches i didn't use. Can it be the problem? ---------------------------------------- > Date: Wed, 25 Jun 2008 14:41:20 +0200 > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > CC: [email protected] > Subject: Re: [ECOS] SNMP authentication problem > > On Wed, Jun 25, 2008 at 03:22:48PM +0300, Alperen Coskun wrote: > > > > > > I know its place, but I asked as the basic of SNMP, when I entered lines > > below to /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf file: > > > > createUser username MD5 "password" > > rwuser username auth > > > > it should create a user "username" with password "password" and > > encrypt&cypt the coming-coming packets according to MD5.
