Hi James, As Lindsay said the PIX doesn't support SNMP write access, even if SNMP v3 is secure , they decide to not implement the function: historical choice or not ? ... If you want to backup your pix config you can googeling for some perl script that use net:ssh library and add it to jffnms backup scripts.

As an old OpenBSD biggot, I find it hard to believe(cisco) but, you have not provided any evidence that cisco's snmp3 over sshd(the latest patched versions) has security holes. Show me da money.....?
