Issue/Introduction

Testing snmptd probe version 3.40, we are able to receive the V3 authPriv traps if the probe is deployed on Windows. 

When the probe is running on Linux the v3 authPriv traps are correctly received at the probe's trap monitor. 

On linux, also v2, and v3 AuhtNoprovi traps are received, so the issue is limited to V3 authPriv traps on Linux only.
