> what is wrong here ? By default, "snmpusm ... passwd" will attempt to change *both* the authentication and encryption keys - so it needs to know what encryption algorithm is configured for this user. (Despite the fact that there *is* only one!) Try either specifying the encryption algorithm: snmpusm -v 3 -u myuser -n "" -l authNoPriv -a MD5 -A 12345678 ==> -x DES 127.0.0.1 passwd 12345678 myuserpasswd or saying that you only want to change the authentication password: snmpusm -v 3 -u myuser -n "" -l authNoPriv -a MD5 -A 12345678 ==> -Ca 127.0.0.1 passwd 12345678 myuserpasswd Dave ------------------------------------------------------- SF email is sponsored by - The IT Product Guide Read honest & candid reviews on hundreds of IT Products from real users.
