If I create a user (createUser directive in /var/net-snmp/snmpd.conf), =
it appears in the USM table as active & nonVolatile, and is still there =
when snmpd is stopped. Any changes made (e.g. through snmpusm) are also =
saved.

Now, if I add a trapsess line to (the other) snmpd.conf file using the =
above user's details, that user is destroyed - the entry is marked as =
read only, and is not saved to the persistent config file on agent exit.

The upshot of this is that the same user cannot be used for gets/sets =
and also traps while being able to remotely administer the user's =
details.

Is this intentional, a bug, or have I missed something else?

Version Info:
Netsnmp 5.3.0.1 on various Linux distros.

Cheers,
Phil
