James,
I do not understand it myself. We have an identical box on our network
in another location that is not generateing these traps. Both boxes are
running Netview 6.0 on solarus 2.7 OS. The TRAPD.CONF file was
customised by a person at another company we merged with so I am unsure
of all of it's details. I did search it for anything I could recognise
that would cause this. I am fairly new to netview so am probably
overlooking the obvious.
How would I go about adding this trap to prevent further problems?

James,
I do not understand it myself. We have an identical box on our
network in another location that is not generateing these traps.
Both boxes are running Netview 6.0 on solarus 2.7 OS. The TRAPD.CONF
file was customised by a person at another company we merged with so I
am unsure of all of it's details. I did search it for anything I
could recognise that would cause this. I am fairly new to netview
so am probably overlooking the obvious.
How would I go about adding this trap to prevent further problems?

The trap is the new global Acknowldeged
trap, though I am mystified as to why you get the Unformatted trap part,
because by default NetView will format all his own traps whether there
is an entry in trapd.conf or not. You could always add one
if you wanted to format the trap yourself.
But what have you got set
up that is sending this as a mail message? You'd have to have some
customization in place to do that.
What level of code and what OS
are you using? Has someone customized traps in trapd to send mail?

Hi,
My Netview server is being flooded
by the following messages in the
/var/mail/netview file.
I cannot identify where they are comeing from.
Does anyone out there recognise
these messages and could you provide
some guidence in controlling
this. It is bringing my box to it's knees.
Thanks,
Mike
