Hi,
Thanks for ur kind help and very sorry for my delayed reply.
As per the function copy_nword() function should i prefix a \ if password
contains \.
Should i quote initial password with double quotes for createUser entry in
snmpd.conf? or
Only for trapsess entry in snmpd.conf.
Thanx,
Devi.U

If memory serves, the initial passwords must be quoted with double
quotes and if internally you need a " prefix it with a \ and it should
work. But this is from memory...
