SMS: SNMP Trap Translator Fails After Applying WinNT 4.0 SP 2 (167887)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Systems Management Server 1.2
This article was previously published under Q167887 SYMPTOMS
The Systems Management Server Trap Receiver is a service that makes SNMP
trap information available to Systems Management Server. The Systems
Management Server Trap Receiver can receive traps from any suitable SNMP
source, including the Event to Trap Translator. Traps generated by the
Event to Trap Translator will display a Windows NT event source name for
the event that triggered the trap.
After you apply Windows NT 4.0 Service Pack 2, the Event to Trap Translator
does not function properly. Consequently, no traps are sent or written to
the Systems Management Server database.
CAUSE
Windows NT 4.0 Service Pack 2 replaced two files: Snmp.exe and Snmpapi.dll.
WORKAROUND
To work around this problem, replace these files with those from the
Windows NT 4.0 (no service pack) release.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Systems Management Server
version 1.2. We are researching this problem and will post new information
here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
