I won't pretend that I understand what the patches are doing, but I have a few comments: 1) The return value of snmpv3_local_snmpEngineTime appears to have changed from seconds to centi-seconds. I'm sure you understand the implications of this (I sure dont), but I'm just double checking. usm_check_and_update_timeliness uses this function, and compares against a value from usm_process_in_msg, which appears to get it from usm_parse_security_parameters, which gets it from the packet(msgAuthoritativeEngineTime). If this not the first message in an exchange, and the value in the packet is one they copied from a packet we sent, and the snmpv3_local_snmpEngineTime was used to put the time in the pack we sent, everything is fine. At the very least, the function comment needs to be updated to indicate the new return value. 2) I think we need to standardize on a autoheader and autoconf versions for the core developers. Right now, configure is ping-ponging between versions, and slight differences between the generated files are causing unnecessary diffs. It looks like you have 2.57, and I've got 2.59 (odd, considering I thought we both were using the latest from fedora).
