Error using SNMPv3 in SUSE 9,3

Hi there,

I've got a SUSE 9.3 server

I created a SNMPv3 user with (and got success message afterwards)
> net-snmp-config --create-snmpv3-user -ro -x DES -a MD5 -A "mypw" -X
"mypw" nagios

then I changed  /usr/share/snmp/snmpd.conf to
> rouser nagios AuthPriv
for forcing encryption

then I startet the daemon (which wasn't running before):

when I now run the command
> snmpwalk -v3 -u nagios  -a MD5 -A "mypw" -x DES -X "mypw" -l authPriv
localhost

I get the message
>snmpwalk: Unknown user name

Logfile says:
> /var/lib/net-snmp/snmpd.conf: line 35: Error: Unknown authentication
protocol

line 35 is
> oldEngineID 0x80001f8880b7ecfe285bdf654300000000

do I have to install a package, so that DES-encryption can be handled? I
think, I had a similar problem some time ago, but don't quite remenber,
what I had done to solve it.

Thanks in advance for any help.

Nils
