Hello James,
Thanks very much that seems to have sorted it, I was running it all from
the current directory. Seemed to work on the other MIBS I've done. Never
mind that will teach me for taking shortcuts.
Is there any reason that mib2trap does not import the description into the
trap message?.
Thanks again

Never heard of this one before, so I am as confused by this as you are.
The syntax for mib2trap on NT is a little different than on UNIX, because
UNIX allows you to create a an optional baroc file too, but in either
case, that error message means only one thing. When we tried to open the
input file, we got back a null pointer. I hate to ask the obvious but did
you use a full path name or run it from the directory where the MIB is
located?
mib2trap <full_path_to_MIB_input_file> <user_chosen_output_
file_(bat)_ file>
should work on any platform.

Hello All,
I have installed the Cisco Works integration tool into my NetView 7.1.3
Fixpak 1 environment and now need to created the TRAP definitions using
the
good old mib2trap. All sounded very simple as I have used this before for
other MIB files.
Unfortunately I get an "Open failed for
'STAND-ALONE-ETHERNET-SWITCH-MIB.my', stopping.". this happened on all the
MIB files installed by Cisco, any one seen this before or know of a way
around it?
Thanks in advance
Sean O'Connor
