Re: [nv-l] NetView NT to Tec integration.

That depends.
UNIX has a built-in TEC adapter in the nvserverd daemon. He'll forward events to TEC when configured to do so. Instead of using Filter statements in the conf file to decide what to send, you use a ruleset run by nvcorrd. And instead of configuring events in the OID and CDS files, you configure them in trapd.conf. These are standard NetView for UNIX facilities which you may already be using for other purposes.
NetView for UNIX is easier to configure than NetView for Windows with regard to TEC forwarding if you aren't picky about how the events appear in the TEC console and are happy with the defaults. If not, the customization is a wash in terms of effort I think. I prefer UNIX but that's me.
But you should ask other users what they think. I'm a bug fixer not a network admin. What I do is send events only to test the function.

Thanks James, I'll give it a go.
A quick question, would I have saved myself a lot of effort, forwarding new stuff to the Tec,
with Netview on Linux instead of NV on NT2000.
