Hello Dave, Many thanks for your answer. I tried two varaints, one with authAccess and the other with setaccess; their behaviour was the same. I'll explain.
I used the following commands to send traps; one is without context and the other with. snmptrap -e 0x01020304 -v 3 -u public -l noAuthnoPriv udp:localhost:162 42 coldStart.0 snmptrap -e 0x01020304 -n mycontext -v 3 -u public -l noAuthnoPriv udp:localhost:162 42 coldStart.0 The command without the context comes through without a problem. The command with the context reaches the trapdaemon at port 162 (I see the debug stuff), but the trap seems to be rejected; it is not logged. As I said before, for both conf files the result was the same. I played around with this stuff for quite a while before writing to the mailing list, but could not get it to go. I'm not sure what I should try next. Many Thanks, Mark. #################################################################### ## Variant 1 createUser -e 0x01020304 public MD5 password DES password view all included .1 group pubGroup usm public authAccess log,execute,net pubGroup all noauth mycontext authAccess log,execute,net pubGroup all noauth #################################################################### ## Variant 2 createUser -e 0x01020304 public MD5 password DES password view all included .1 group pubGroup usm public setaccess pubGroup "" usm noauth exact log all setaccess pubGroup mycontext usm noauth exact log all #################################################################### > authAccess feels the right thing to use here. > > Instead of > authUser log,execute,net public authnopriv > > Try something like > > group pubGroup usm public > authAccess log,execute,net pubGroup _all_ noauth mycontext > > Dave ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
