i had thought the security name is independent from the USM dependent username,
so i construct one from the scratch....

yeah, i see, thank you.
security name is a term origining from VACM, and for VACM check.
	when usm, the username is identity to the security name,
	when v1/v2c, we have to map the community to a security name used by VACM.

thank you, maybe we should gather these explaination into the snmpd.conf(5) manual...
