Re: snmpv3 traps and contexts

Hello Dave,

Many thanks for your answer. I tried two varaints, one
with authAccess and the other with setaccess; their behaviour
was the same. I'll explain.

I used the following commands to send traps; one is without
context and the other with.

snmptrap -e 0x01020304              -v 3 -u public  -l noAuthnoPriv
udp:localhost:162 42 coldStart.0
snmptrap -e 0x01020304 -n mycontext -v 3 -u public  -l noAuthnoPriv
udp:localhost:162 42 coldStart.0

The command without the context comes through without a problem.
The command with the context reaches the trapdaemon at port 162
(I see the debug stuff), but the trap seems to be rejected; it
is not logged. As I said before, for both conf files the result
was the same.

I played around with this stuff for quite a while before writing to
the mailing list, but could not get it to go. I'm not sure what I
should try next.

Many Thanks,

	Mark.
