Hello,

I am a beginning user of Net-SNMP.

I am trying to use the Perl module from Net-SNMP 5.5.  I have been successful 
in sending v1 and v2 traps.  However, I am running into a problem with v3 traps 
using the Perl module.  I have successfully sent traps from command line using 
sendtrap (v1, v2 and v3).

Snmpd is running (verified by command-line).  My username was added by 
create_v3_user and I verified that it exists in snmp.d.

I think that the problem is related to not having a valid authoritative engine 
Id.  However, I don't have this problem from the command-line net-snmp.  Is 
this a configuration issue?

I am monitoring the destination machine with wireshark.  I am seeing SNMP traps 
come in with v1 and v2.  However, my v3 trap is doing a get-request.  The 
destination machine is replying with "report SNMP-USER-BASED-SM-MIB: 
usmStatsUnknownEngineIDs" (as seen in wireshark).  The get-request message show 
a missing authoritative engine ID.  I don't understand why a get-request 
message is being sent.  Btw, Spectrum is on that destination machine.

Any help in ideas for troubleshooting this problem would be appreciated.

Thanks!
