Hi,
I am using version 5.4.2.1 that services SNMP version 3 requests (both Auth and
Priv), but have run into a problem with an external application I am writing.
It is on the server side and uses pass_persist to interact with an external
PostgreSQL database. This part is currently working well.
However, the application needs to know the user (securityName) associated
with the SNMP request and display this information for all to see. It has the
concept of only allowing a single user to have write control at a point in time
and that user name needs to be visible to all other logged in users who need
write access to the system. The process of obtaining and releasing write
control are both performed via separate SNMP requests.
I have looked for the session information in pass_persist.c but it does not
appear to be available.
Does anyone know a way I can get the securityName from within pass_persist.c?
If this is not possible, then modifying the code may be the way to go. Any
pointers or suggestions as to what I would need to change would be highly
appreciated.
I have tried some experimentation code changes using
netsnmp_query_get_default_session() and netsnmp_ds_get_string() from within
pass_persist.c, but with no success. I am very much a novice to the 5.4.2.1
code and at this stage need some help.
Best Regards,
William Powrie
