SNMPv3 problem with kill -HUP

Hello,

I am trying to create a SNMPv3 user on a SNMP v5.6.1 agent.  I am using the
snmpusm utility to create the user, and seems successfully, that I can show
it on:
"snmpwalk -v2c -c public 127.0.0.1 snmpUsmMIB"

Not until I do a total restart of the SNMP agent, I cannot query the SNMP
variable by using the new create username.  If I just do a "kill ­HUP", I
cannot use the newly created user credential to query the variable.  Also,
if there is any new snmpd.conf configuration change such as community string
change, and do a "kill ­HUP", I cannot do SNMPv3 query with the username.

Does anybody know how to fix the problem ?  The snmpusm command that I use
is something like:

/usr/bin/snmpusm -v3 -u initial -l authNoPriv -a SHA -A xyz1234567 localhost
create new_user original_user
/usr/bin/snmpusm -v3 -u new_user -l authNoPriv -a SHA -A xyz1234567 -Ca
localhost passwd xyz1234567 1234567xyz

Thanks
--Andrew
