Hi Laurence. I have documented how to configure Windows to forward event log messages as SNMP traps when using the Microsoft SNMP service: http://www.snmptt.org/docs/snmptt.shtml#EventWin If you are using the winExtDLL version of Net-SNMP then it should work without the Microsoft SNMP service running. If not, then you can configure the Microsoft SNMP service to listen on a different port so it doesn't conflict with Net-SNMP (see the Net-SNMP README.win32 file) and configure it to not accept queries from any hosts except localhost (not required, but a good idea).
