Hi All,

I have a setup where two machine are available. Each machine execute snmpd 
process on it and having snmpd.conf file.  On one machine I ran snmptrapd 
process to receive trap from other machine.

I configure snmpv3 user and engine_id and all passphrase detail.  The  details 
are same for both the machines.

I configure trapsess entry in snmpd.conf file of the machine as below

trapsess -e <engine_id> -v 3 -u <username> -a MD5 -A <authpassphrase> -x DES -X 
<privpassphrase> -l authpriv <hostname>

In snmptrapd.conf I configure as below

authUser log,execute,net <snmpv3_user>

When I restart snmpd process on one machine it generates clear traps for the 
resource it monitors but when I check the logs at snmptrapd site, I see the 
error as


Message too old.


I search on internet for this and found that when snmpd generate snmpv3 trap it 
adds boot and engine time to the packet. This time get reset to 0 if the 
process gets restarted but I did not get the answer/help about how to solve the 
issue of "Message too old".


Can anybody please help me out about what configuration changes I need to make 
to resolve the above error Or give some pointer to look at the details for 
solving the  issue?



Thanks

Vijendra.
