Uma,
Perhaps the confusion is because there are two different files named
snmpd.conf. Where they are located depends on the system configuration;
mine are in /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf and /var/lib/net-snmp/snmpd.conf .
If you put the createUser command in /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf, it will remain
there,
Michael/Team,
Can you please provide more information on the below, as I am newbie to snmp
and net-snmp.
As you mentioned below I removed the user from snmpd.conf, after that snmpwalk
fails with following error.
debugshell# snmpwalk -v3 -u u1 -a sha -A watchThis123 -l AuthPriv -x AES -X
Hi Michael/team,
A gentle reminder for help.
Thanks,
Uma Mohandoss

Michael,

Unable to know clearly what are the common options in the snmpusm syntax.
Tried following and got below error.
snmpusm -v 3 -a sha -l AuthPriv -x AES localhost cloneFrom USER u1 -X
watchThis123
The encrypted user is placed in the persistent data file.
You can remove this line from snmpd.conf after the user is created,
and use snmpusm to clone it for new accounts.

Hi,
Net-snmp 5.8, user creation does not encrypt password. Password stored in plain
text under /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf.
Eg. (snippet from snmpd.conf)
createUseru1 SHA watchThis123 AES watchThis123
group COMMON usm u1
Need help/patch to encrypt password.
Thanks,
