Hi,
I have a problem with the persistent data. Basically with the password, which 
it is not saved at runtime.
Let's say that one user has the password "passwd_default". I change the 
password (with snmpusm command) to "passwd_new" and the change is correctly 
applied. From this point there are two cases:    1) If I stop the snmpd in a 
controlled way and then restart it, the password is the expected one 
("passwd_new")    2) If the snmpd is killed (kill -9, Ctrl+C...) and then 
restart it, the password comes back to the previous one ("passwd_old")
I've checked the persistent file (where the password is present but encrypted) 
and no change has been applied to this file after commanding the password 
change with snmpusm.Searching information, I found some comments related to 
this issue, explaining that the daemon does not dump or synchronize runtime 
data to disk until it is stopped.
Does anyone know anyway to avoid this issue and force the snmp daemon to dump 
inmediatelly this information to the disk?I've seen something about setting the 
flag versionSavePersistentData.0 to 1 after changing the password, but I would 
prefer to use configuration settings at start-up (if possible), in order to 
avoid the use of two commands to change the password.

Thanks in advance
