Public bug reported:
I'm trying to connect to an AP9619 management card with SNMPv3 authPriv,
but the snmp-ups driver fails to start.
When running the driver directly:
$ sudo /lib/nut/snmp-ups -a ups1 -DDD
Network UPS Tools - Generic SNMP UPS driver 0.58 (2.6.3)
0.000000 debug level is '3'
0.001185 SNMP UPS driver : entering upsdrv_initups()

tcpdump output while running the aforementioned driver:

When setting nut to use SNMPv1, the GetRequests are for a different OID,
no response from the UPS as v1 is disabled:
16:42:32.323542 IP (tos 0x0, ttl 64, id 0, offset 0, flags [DF], proto UDP
(17), length 77)
10.0.10.10.54510 > 10.0.0.6.161: [bad udp cksum 0x1e5a -> 0xa2d0!] {
SNMPv1 { GetRequest(34) R=1587461727 .1.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.1.1.1.1.0 } }
If I query the UPS with the same OID, but v3 protocol, I get a normal
response from the UPS:
$ snmpget -Cf -v 3 -u apc_ups_1_authpriv -l authPriv -a MD5 -A 'auth password
obfuscated' -X 'priv password obfuscated' 10.0.0.6
.1.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.1.1.1.1.0
SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.318.1.1.1.1.1.1.0 = STRING: "Smart-UPS 3000 RM"
So I think snmp-ups is querying the wrong OIDs somehow, or something else is
not right.
Also might be relevant, my authPriv passwords have special characters in them,
like dots, colons, semicolons, parents, dashes, more/less, equals). The
passwords obviously work with the normal snmpget command. There is no mention
in the documentation, config files or man pages whether qouting is required
around the passwords in ups.conf when using passwords containing special
characters, so I tried them plain, double or single quoted with no difference.
