RE: snmpv3 authentication failure

I am using the net-snmp V5.2.1 shipped with ucLinux 2.6.x

The makefile is the one used to build the snmp application from the
uclinux user/net-snmp directory.

This constructs a NET_SNMP_CFG symbol with all the required snmp
configuration info and runs ../configure $(NET_SNMP_CFG) in the build
rule. I have attached the makefile for you.

Unfortunately ucLinux use make menuconfig to setup configuration data
for all applications built in. I don't think the net-snmp app has an
entry for endian setting. This is obviously not your problem. I will ask
on the uclinux forum as well.

Thanks for your help.

Regards,

Steve

   $ ./configure --help | grep endian
     --with-endianness=big|little    define endianness of target
platform

Which makefile is this?
I've just checked the current source, and there's
no mention of CONFIG_CPU_BIG_ENDIAN at all.

The code above looks suspiciously like an external
wrapper around the Net-SNMP configure mechanism.
  Where did you pick the SNMP code up from?
