I have run into a major problem in an application I am developing using the net-snmp library (5.3.0.1) concerning conflicts between usm users. My program is given a list of snmpv3 configurations (usernames, authlevels, passwords etc.) and attempts to determine which configuration works on a particular device. In order to cut down on the waiting time I am make asynchronous queries using all of the configurations and then wait to see which one gives a valid response. I have run into a problem when multiple configurations have the same username. I think the problem is occurring in usm_add_user_to_list because it requires that a username/engineID be a unique combination. Depending on the ordering of the configurations the correct one could be replaced with an incorrect one so that when I receive a valid response I get an authentication failure because the hashes don't match. Does anyone have any suggestions to get around this? The only thing I can think of at the moment is to group the configurations into unique usernames and then process one group at a time but I would prefer another option as this will take longer than sending them all at once. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
