Michael/Team, Can you please provide more information on the below, as I am newbie to snmp and net-snmp.
As you mentioned below I removed the user from snmpd.conf, after that snmpwalk fails with following error. debugshell# snmpwalk -v3 -u u1 -a sha -A watchThis123 -l AuthPriv -x AES -X watchThis123 localhost iso Error in packet. Reason: authorizationError (access denied to that object) Also cloneFrom fails with following error: snmpusm localhost cloneFrom u1 u1 -x AES -A watchThis123 -X watchThis123 -l AuthPriv -a sha snmpset: No securityName specified so added -u option debugshell# snmpusm localhost cloneFrom u1 u1 -u uma -x AES -A watchThis123 -X watchThis123 -l AuthPriv -a sha User successfully cloned. this time user is successfully cloned. But still password is not encrypted. createUser u1 SHA watchThis123 AES watchThis123 group WAAS usm u1 Thanks, Uma Mohandoss On Friday, 20 December, 2019, 5:35:28 PM IST, Michael W.

You can remove this line from snmpd.conf after the user is created, and use snmpusm to clone it for new accounts. ==ml On Fri, Dec 20, 2019 at 05:31:09AM +0000, Uma Mohandoss via Net-snmp-users wrote: > Hi, > > Net-snmp 5.8, user creation does not encrypt password.
