Hi all, I've already sent an email about this topic but this time I'll tried to be more cleared. I'm using net-snmp 5.3.2 and I'm trying to change the passwords for the users using the command snmpusm. The configuration file, snmpd.conf, used is as shown, ... rwuser user1 authnopriv rwuser user2 authpriv
createUser user1 MD5 pass1 createUser user2 MD5 pass2 DES pass2 ... I tried to send the command with the options, snmpusm -v 3 -u user2 -n "" -l authPriv -a MD5 -A pass2 -x DES -X pass2 localhost passwd pass2 pass2_n but it returns, Error in packet. Reason: inconsistentName (That object can not currently be created) Failed object: SNMP-USER-BASED-SM-MIB::usmUserOwnAuthKeyChange.".....zzzzz"."pass2" I also tried to change the password by using the user2, the authNoPriv user with, snmpusm -v 3 -u user2 -n "" -l authPriv -a MD5 -A pass2 -x DES -X pass2 localhost passwd pass1 pass1_n user1 We notice that if the createUser line it's not present in the configuration file we can create the user and than change the password. Is it possible or is there a way to change the passwords for all the users, autNoPriv or authPriv, when they are created in the configuration file? Does anyone ever done such thing? Any idea?

SC> createUser user1 MD5 pass1 SC> createUser user2 MD5 pass2 DES pass2 Those lines shouldn't go into your snmpd.conf. They should go into /var/net-snmp/snmpd.conf (or more simply, use the net-snmp-config script for creating new users instead by using the --create-snmpv3-user switch). -- Wes Hardaker Sparta, Inc. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Open Source Business Conference (OSBC), March 24-25, 2009, San Francisco, CA -OSBC tackles the biggest issue in open source: Open Sourcing the Enterprise -Strategies to boost innovation and cut costs with open source participation -Receive a $600 discount off the registration fee with the source code: SFAD http://p.sf.net/sfu/XcvMzF8H _______________________________________________ Net-snmp-coders mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/net-snmp-coders
