Should probably note this is my first time in attempt to configure and setup this up in order to send an SNMPv3 packet, obvious questions are probably the best ones.


I tried following the "CREATING THE FIRST USER:" within http://net-snmp.sourceforge.net/docs/README.snmpv3.html 


$net-snmp-config --create-snmpv3-user -a "my_password" myuser

Gave me -

adding the following line to /var/net-snmp/snmpd.conf:
   createUser myuser MD5 "my_password" DES
adding the following line to /usr/local/share/snmp/snmpd.conf:
   rwuser myuser
shift: 661: can't shift that many


Things didnt seem to work so i then decided to follow the http://net-snmp.sourceforge.net/tutorial/tutorial-5/demon/snmpd.html#qnd "Basic setup with snmpconf"
setup. Which i then copied the snmpd.conf file as mentioned on the previous emails.

I having big problems in creating any snmpv3 user account successfully..
