This bug (rather just an oversight) pisses me off to no end. It seems as simple as not including the shell script that runs the create-v3-user. The workaround did not work for me, so I copied /usr/bin/net-snmp- create-v3-user from a Centos 6.4 machine. I changed the "outdir" variable at the bottom of the script to /var/lib/snmp (as it is on 14.04).
1. sudo vi /usr/bin/net-snmp-create-v3-user 2. Paste contents of this: http://pastebin.com/uC3y5Kyz 3. chmod +x /usr/bin/net-snmp-create-v3-user Then run: net-snmp-create-v3-user -a PASSWORD -x PASSWORD -X DES -A MD5 snmpuser It essentially does the same as the workaround, but the workaround did not work for me. So there it is. I guess update the package to include this file again? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to net-snmp in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1322431 Title: libsnmp-dev: Cannot create snmpv3 user with net-snmp-config command To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/net-snmp/+bug/1322431/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
