Error message returned by snmptrap

["Rama, R. (Reggie)" <ReggieR@NEDCOR.CO.ZA>]

Hello everybody

I wonder if anyone could assist me with this.

I am using the snmptrap command to send a trap to another machine that does
the paging. When I generate the message
.i.e. format

/usr/OV/bin/snmptrap rars-2.it.nednet.co.za $NVE $NVA $NVG $NVS $NVT
system.sysDescr.0 octetstring $NVA

NV returns the following error message

Variable binding must be specified as multiplies of 3.4 is not a multiple of
3 extra arguments

I have condensed the message to send only a single [ variable type value]
set and I still get this error message.

Any assistance will be greatly appreciated.

Regards
