AG> i was trying to install cmu-snmp-linux3.5. The readme file says run

this sets the authkey for the default user public in the snmpd.conf
file:

> # noneRV noneWV authRV authWV userName[/authKey]
> user xmini - all all public/0x05a1483bb7a0b314cc5cf9d27aee2a89
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

this part (default is `nase').

its only useful for SNMPv2 usec (you may want to have a
look at the README.usec too).

i hope this helps.

offtopic: cheers,
Erik
