Hi  Jochen,
                     Thanks !! it helped !  I could generate v3 traps.

However one small question. If i have stored passwords in already Md5
format (reading it typically from a database) ,  then could it work with
existing API ? ( No I guess as current API expects plain string ? )  any
suggestions ?

regards

Vikram
