James,

Thanks for the help, i was for some reason not able to run the snmpget command. But i used the SNMP Browser to get the required values:
the output of the SNMP Browser for system.sysObjectID was: -

===========================================
Node Name or Address: 202.63.80.1

Community Name: enterasys

MIB Object ID: .iso.org.dod.internet.mgmt.mib-2.system

MIB Instance:

Set Value:

MIB Value:
        0 : .iso.org.dod.internet.private.enterprises.cisco.ciscoProducts.436

Message: Using community "enterasys" for node 202.63.80.1
=============================================


I've translated it to the following and have made the entries in the "oid_to_type" and "oid_to_sym" files:-


1.3.6.1.2.1.1.2.436:Cisco Systems:Cisco 3745:G        #oid_to_type
1.3.6.1.2.1.1.2.436:Connector:Gateway #oid_to_sym


Regards,

~Usman

Show us the entry you put in oid_to_type,  and  the one in oid_to_sym,  and
the results of doing this
      snmpget system.sysObjectID.0 <target_box>
from a command window.

If the OIDs match, then it should be removed from the  BadOID smartset
after you

1. delete the objects from all submaps  (select it and do Edit --> All
submaps --> Cut)
2.  ovstop netmon
3. ovtopofix  (in a command window)
4. ovstart netmon

Worked for me on NetView for Windows with a United Linux OID this morning
