Errr... no. That's the correct configuration (assuming that the second file is in the persistent configuration directory - I'd normally expect this to be in /var/net-snmp/snmpd.conf). The createUser line is used to define the name of an SNMPv3 user (including algorithm and password information). The rwuser line is used to specify what access this user should have. Both entries are necessary. It does sound as if something odd is going on in general, but there's nothing wrong with these particular entries. I haven't had a chance to look at the trapsess behaviour yet, but my guess is that this might need to specify an explicit engineID for correct operation. Dave - it would be useful to have some details about how you have configured users on the trap receiver. SNMPv3 notifications are notoriously difficult to get right! See http://www.net-snmp.org/wiki/index.php/TUT:snmptrap_SNMPv3 for more information.
