I have been doing debug work and my guess is the problem is here

smux.c

    if (!smux_auth_peer(oid_name, oid_name_len, passwd, fd)) {
        snmp_log(LOG_WARNING,
                 "refused smux peer: oid %s, descr %s\n",
                 oid_print, descr);
        *fail = TRUE;
        return ptr;
    }

I have printed the password in the log and it is printed ok but the len
is always 0. I went and modified the code of smux_auth_peer to just
return 1 and of course this made the authentication succeed. I guess the
problem actually is in the string comparison in this function. Please
help as am not so familiar with snmp programming.
