Hi Mike,
you said,

Cloning the user does not clone the VACM settings. The user "wes" has no authorization to read or write anything. I think what u said is correct bcoz i can see in the usmUser table the entries for my user "wes" but not in vacm tables.

Check out the `snmpvacm` command.

So if i use snmpvacm command , i got the below result
snmpvacm -v 3 -u wes -l authNoPriv -a MD5 -A initialpasswd 172.16.8.145:161 createSec2Group 3 wes-network wesRWGroup
Error in packet.
Reason: authorizationError (access denied to that object)

Please help
regards
kusuma

I am running snmpd as the agent on machine 172.10.1.4 , and snmptrapd as the server on 172.10.1.5 Now i am giving the below command from the snmptrapd( ie. server machine).

snmpusm -v3 -u initial -l authNoPriv -a MD5 -A initialpasswd 172.10.1.4:161 create wes initial
User successfully created. ->is my output.

now if i try to give the command from snmptrapd
snmpwalk -v3 -u wes -l authNoPriv -a MD5 -A initialpasswd 172.10.1.4 :161 .1.3.6.1.6.3.15
Error in packet.
Reason: authorizationError (access denied to that object) -> is my output. Accoding to me the above command should work since wes(cloned user) inherits/retains the passphrase from 'initial'(existing user).

        Cloning the user does not clone the VACM settings.  The user "wes" has 
no authorization to read or write anything.  Check out the `snmpvacm` command.


        HTH,

Mike
