Hi, im installing net-snmp in a ubuntu server but i cant seem to get it work. I have problems with my authentication in v3, this is what im doing:

1.
edit my /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf
and writte in it just:
rw user auth

2. stop the daemon

3. create the user with:

net-snmp-config --create-snmpv3-user -a "password" user

4. start the daemon

DONE, no if I try
snmpget -v 3 -u user -l authNoPriv -a MD5 -A password localhost sysUpTime.0

It will work!

OK, but if i go to another computer and do form example
snmpget -v 3 -u user -l authNoPriv -a MD5 -A password 192.168.0.194 sysUpTime.0

it doesnt!!!

where 192.168.0.194 is the ip address of the comp where i just installed net-snmp

Someone please help me, im going crazy with this problem.
