	The MIB file is not found.  This has nothing to do with whether or not the data is presented.

	Those are the only ones it's looking for.  They are the default set.  Everything else in a mibs directory will be parsed, but is not required.

	As far as I can tell, there's no way to run the net-snmp agent as a service on Windows and get correct logging.  ???!!!  I can't find logging directives for snmpd in the man pages...?

	Well, it's nice to have a consistent result.

	Please remove all doubt and invoke as C:\snmp54\bin\snmpd.exe .

	Please tell me you know what to do about this... good!  Now do it.

	It's looking for the mibs in the default location, which tells me that you did not set MIBDIRS.  You should set MIBS=all as well, if you want your other MIBs recognized.  It's also creating a persistent storage directory in the default location - you probably want to override this in the conf file and put it under C:\snmp54 with everything else.

	The fact that those directories are being created implies that the agent has never gotten this far in the startup process before.  This makes sense - since the files are in a non-default location the conf file will never be found by the service, which does nopt permit command line arguments.  If you want to run as a service, you must either put your installation in C:\usr or compile your own location in.

	I must be missing something, but what does the agent do with MIB files anyway?  Disman?


	HTH,

Mike
