hello friends,
Greetings
i have created netsnmp v3 user as follows


[root@localhost root]#  net-snmp-config --create-snmpv3-user -a
"my_password"  -A MD5 -x "my_password"   -X AES myuser
adding the following line to /var/net-snmp/snmpd.conf:
   createUser myuser MD5 "my_password" AES my_password
adding the following line to /usr/share/snmp/snmpd.conf:
   rwuser myuser


then i started agent & i run this command

[root@localhost net-snmp-5.1.4]# snmpd -Le -d -f -c /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf
/var/net-snmp/snmpd.conf: line 1: Error: Unknown privacy protocol
net-snmp: 1 error(s) in config file(s)
Turning on AgentX master support.
/etc/snmp/snmpd.conf: line 64: Warning: Unknown token: smuxsocket.

then i tried to do snmpwalk like this
[root@localhost bhushans]# snmpwalk -v 3 -a MD5 -A my_password -l authPriv
-n "" -u myuser -x AES -X my_password
localhost
Invalid privacy protocol specified after -x flag: AES
USAGE: snmpwalk [OPTIONS] AGENT [OID]
SNMP Version 1 or 2c specific
  -c COMMUNITY          set the community string
SNMP Version 3 specific
  -a PROTOCOL           set authentication protocol (MD5|SHA)
  -A PASSPHRASE         set authentication protocol pass phrase......


 i also have  taken care in installing  netsnmp 5.1.4 with openssl support
on.
after ./configure --with-openssl=/usr it has showed in configure
summary that
---------------------------------------------------------
            Net-SNMP configuration summary:
---------------------------------------------------------

  Net-SNMP Version:           5.1.4
  Building for:               linux
  Network transport support:  Callback Unix TCP UDP
  SNMPv3 Security Modules:    usm
  Agent MIB code:             mibII ucd_snmp snmpv3mibs notification target
agent_mibs agentx utilities
  SNMP Perl modules:          disabled
  Embedded perl support:      disabled
  Authentication support:     MD5 SHA1
  Encryption support:         DES AES

---------------------------------------------------------
so looking at this i guess it is going to support AES
still it will fail with invalid privacy type
so what i have made wrong in this  i have specified proper
 protocol ie AES still it give me error.
 what may be the reason ?
 Please help me.
