First Issue:
I think your names are reverting back to an IP address during a demand poll.  
You also do not appear to have reverse lookup for your IP addresses and that is 
why your nodes only have an IP address and not a name.  If you are not using 
DNS, put the names you want in your "hosts" file.

Second issue:
Try using loadhosts to add these nodes.

Hi,

I joined again to this list because I still have to use NV :)

Here is my current issues:

First issue:
On my main map I turned off automatic layout and I made customized view of
the network. I renamed the symbols on this map, and I've changed ip numbers
to name+ipnumbers. It took two or three hours. After a few days NV changed
back my symbol names to ip addresses and made me crazy. The stuff did this
twice :) Why? How can I avoid this?

Second issue:
I created some object manually by edit/add/object. I entered IP addresses
and community strings (in snmp config), but these objects remains in blue,
so I cannot manage. These objects behind a firewall, but snmp traffic is
allowed between the hosts and the NMS. How can I manage objects behind
firewall? How can I manage object added manually?

Third issue:
Right now I'm working hours on my SLA reports by collecting information from
our management journal. I'm sure netview can do this for me. How can I
create a report which includes the following:
Date-start date-end hostname/object name
Is there any tool for Netview which helps to create SLA reports for a
network? I'm sure there is.

Thank you
