  • Microsoft Windows 98

This article was previously published under Q188202

SYMPTOMS

When you install the Microsoft Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) agent on a computer using Microsoft Client for NetWare Networks, the SNMP agent may not start and you may receive the following error message:
A required .DLL file, SNMPAPI.DLL, was not found.

CAUSE

This behavior can occur because the Snmpapi.dll file is not installed with the Microsoft Client for NetWare Networks.

RESOLUTION

To resolve this issue, install the Microsoft SNMP Agent. To do so, use the following steps:
  1. Click Start, point to Settings, click Control Panel, and then double-click Network.
  2. Click Add, click Service, click Have Disk, type the path to the Tools\Reskit\Netadmin\SNMP folder on your Windows 98 CD-ROM, and then click OK. For example, if your CD-ROM drive letter is D, the path would be:

    d:\Tools\Reskit\Netadmin\SNMP

    NOTE: If you are prompted to specify the location of additional files, specify the path to the Windows 98 source files on a network share, or on the Windows 98 compact disc.
