I'm trying to get v3 security to work. I can use -l authNopriv but -l authpriv gives
"decryption error". I don't understand that. Cryptography isn't my strong suit; I'm
using a network sniffer to look at packets and looking in the net-snmp source but
haven't figured out what's going on. Any clues would be welcome.
I'm using 5.1.1 and I've got this in my /usr/share/snmp/snmpd.conf:
com2sec public default public
view public included .1
group public_v2 v1 public
group public_v2 v2c public
access public_v2 "" any noauth exact public none none
group public_v3 usm public
access public_v3 "" any auth exact public none none
and this in my /var/net-snmp/snmpd.conf:
createUser public MD5 "publicpwd" DES "publicpwd"
I know that the user is active because when I use only authentication, I get answers:
$ snmpget -v 3 -u public -a MD5 -A publicpwd -l authnopriv ipm system.sysLocation.0
RFC1213-MIB::sysLocation.0 = STRING: "The Location"
However, when I try privacy, I get an error:
$ snmpget -v 3 -u public -a MD5 -A publicpwd -x DES -X publicpwd -l authpriv ipm
system.sysLocation.0
snmpget: Decryption error
If snmpget is having trouble DEcrypting, does that mean that it sent a request and got
back a response it doesn't know how to decrypt?
TIA.
Chris
