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?
Where did you expect it to "read" this file from? This is an _embedded_
system, no?

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. But, neither it creates a user in usm nor it encrypts&cypts the packets. The thing I want to learn is why it doesn't do it. When I aim to get any parameter from agent, agent says there isn't any user recorded. Am i doing sth wrong?
I think i once did use the snmpd.conf file, but i don't remember if we
put users in it. I did test create using dynamically using the tests
shown on
http://ecos.sourceware.org/docs-latest/ref/net-snmp-test-cases.html
Do these tests work for you? I you might need to enable some of the
features in tests/snmpping.c
