SYMPTOMS

When you add an SNMP Community Name the Network Settings dialog box closes without presenting the Restart dialog box. If you do not restart the computer, the SNMP Community Name information is not recognized.

WORKAROUND

To work around this problem, after adding SNMP information, shutdown and restart Windows NT or stop and restart the SNMP service in Control Panel Services.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Windows NT Workstation and Server versions 3.51 and 4.0. We are researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
