It looks like this was resolved (passwords must be 8 characters long).
My memory says -X was optional because it would reused the -A password,
but my memory must be wrong.

Also, do make sure that your snmpd daemon isn't running when you create
new users with the net-snmp-config command, because when the agent shuts
down it will overwrite your new user that it doesn't yet have.

(you can also create new users live with the snmpusm tool, but it's a
bit more complex)
