[AGENT++] Problem getting correct info using the snmpGet example with v3

[Jochen Katz]

Hi,

> -ceTW3320568 -authMD5 -privDES -uatellabs1$ -uptellabs1$

first I thought that the $ within the auth/priv passwords could be a
problem, but it works with my bash.

This is the oidSnmpProxyDrops.

Did you set a context name in Mgsoft browser?
