problem sending snmp v3 traps with snmp++ example

do you have write access to the file snmpv3_boot_counter? If the
permissions are ok, try the following patch to snmp++/src/v3.cpp:
--- v3.cpp.orig Thu Dec 21 11:22:15 2000
+++ v3.cpp      Thu Dec 21 11:22:54 2000

 #ifdef WIN32
     _unlink(fileName);
+#else

 #endif 
     if (rename(tmpFileName, fileName))
     {

Please let me know, if this doesn't help.

Best regards,
