That's to be expected. If you specify a non-standard engine ID in the 'createUser' line, then you need to specify this in the 'snmpget' command as well. You haven't specified an engine ID in the command above, so snmpget is using the default engine ID. But there isn't a user "maurizio" with the default engine ID (since you created this user with a different engine ID).
