Net-Snmp coders: I have wrapped net-snmp in a C++ application, and I am trying to get a password change functionality to work. I am able to successfully change a user's own password using the snmpusm command line tool, but not with my application. I get an INCONSISTENTNAME error (error int = 18) every time I call snmp_synch_response.
The method this app uses to figure the particular user's location in the usmUserTable is to query the table via GETNEXT for all of the user security names, and then loop through and find the desired user name. Then we get the particular Oid suffix for that user, that is, the oid numbers beyond the user security name OID, and append that suffix onto the usmUserOwnAuthKeyChangeOid to change the password. The app replicates the function calls used in snmpusm.c, except that the manner of getting the user is as I describe above. The generateKu, generateKul and encode_keychange functions all return without error. The resulting Oid suffix follows pretty much what I see in the /var/net-snmp/snmpd.conf file for that user, except that there is a mystery single digit between the engineId and the hashed user security name. I also notice in /var/net-snmp/snmpd.conf that all the users have a NULL in the place for userCloneFrom, despite the fact that the users were created via cloning with the snmpusm tool. I am able to use the retrieved user suffix with the usmUserSpinLock Oid to retrieve and set that value, so it would appear that the user suffix is valid. I also know from looking at the agent code in usmUser.c, that is the user is not cloned, then an INCONSISTENTNAME error will be returned. Any thoughts about what might be causing the problem here?
