Re: net-SNMP on windows getting decryption error

It would be really nice to get an answer to my question that I posted last
Tuesday. I've compiled net-snmp for windows configured to use openSSL. My
version 3 access to my remote server aurelius works but it doesn't work
with my local server. What have I done wrong in building net-snmp for
windows or what am I doing wrong in my snmpd configuration?

Thanks.
Mark.
